Even though I am not very creative, graphically speaking, I like the idea of
a new, improved state logo. I think it's fine for each individual county to
use a "county" logo of their own choosing, but feel that there should be an
official logo for the INGenWeb Project that should be used on each site.
I checked the links to other state logos that Chris sent and really like the
NYGenWeb, PAGenWeb and WIGenWeb. I'm also a little partial to MDGenWeb
since I also coordinate for Caroline County, MD.
Some other state logos to compare:
Missouri GenWeb,

Mississippi:

Oklahoma:

Using something like "Hoosier Genealogy and History" or something similar
somewhere in the logo might be an idea.
I have been working on updating the INGenWeb Links Project site and wanted
to use our state logo as part of the title for each page, but it is much too
small so I used the state flag instead.
