Hello friends. I am a complete newbie when it comes to SMF and this forum.
I have been reading about how to change the logo of my SMF, and I believe I have found the correct place to change the logo, but it doesn't mention anywhere what size the logo can be or has to be. I apologize if this topic has been beaten to death, I have tried searching the forum, but I haven't had success. So...can someone tell me what size the logo has to be?

Thank you

There are no limitations to the logo size. Just choose whatever you think works best for your forum.

And you know, changing an image or a piece of text isn't going to break your forum, just go testing with the admin options, just don't mess with the server/database ones and you'll be fine ;)

Thank you Fortytwo, I appreciate it.

Well, actually, depending on the theme that you use, there may be limitations on the logo size...

Many themes have a specific area size defined for the logo in order to not screw up the display if the logo is too large.

If you put an image too big on default you could screw that up, too, it still doesn't stop you from doing it :P

Or they really bothered with making an actual limitation in that you can't add the image?

you can ADD the image...   but it might be cut off or misshapen, depending on what the theme did for the logo space coding

Well that's exactly what I meant with "no limitations" and "add what works best" then ;)
