How to change the logo?

Hi there,
We would like to use the site logo (not a downloaded image) of the NEWS template.
But we need to modify its size, font type and colour.
Is there a tutorial available for this?
With thanks.

HI,

You have build your own logo using Photoshop CS, Illustrator, Corel Draw or AAA logo. Then save as PNG, and replace default. It's standard procedure.

Hi Pawel ,
Thank for your reply.
Please note that we also to resize the logo.
The default size of 140x32 is too small for us and we have to increase it to 200x45:

Where could we go to modify the space given for the logo?

hi, default css style for logo looks like that:

Code: Select all

#gkLogo {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    height: 35px;
    margin: 5px 30px 0 0;
    padding: 0;
    text-indent: -999em;
    text-shadow: none;
    width: 140px;
}

changing value of width/height and margins, you can control appearance and position of logo.

use overwrite feature in template or edit template.css file - as you wish.

Hi Pawel F,
That's done with thanks!

Where is this image located?

Hi, sure

Many thanks Pawel F,
