hiya - sorry to be a pain but ive looked for the line that you said and cant find it anywhere?!

Not a line. A file.

Look for logo.png.

It should be in the theme's "theme" directory, inside the "Images" one.

My turn to sound thick now, but is it this:


#logo {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0px;
    left: 44px;
    display: block;
    width: 477px;
    height: 213px;
    cursor: pointer;
    background: url(../images/theme/logo.png) no-repeat;

OK.

[condescending teacher's voice]

Let's start, again, shall we?

Using your FTP client, or your (Shudder) CPanel's File Manager, find the FILE named "logo.png".

You'll find it inside the theme's "theme" (I agree, that can be confusing. Whoever decided upon that name wants shooting!) directory, inside another directory, named "images" (Which is inside the theme's directory. "Sunshine"?).

It's an image file, named "logo.png".

Create your own logo and save it as, wait for it... "logo.png"!

Overwrite the file in that directory I babbled about, with your own one.

How'm I doin', so far?

[mummyk]

Doing brilliantly Sir!

Found the file in the file manager, but .............. (yes, I'm dumb!) ......... how the beeping 'eck do I overwrite it?



At least we're giving you something to laugh at!

How'm I doin', so far?

Almost there. A couple of missing things: the new logo image must be PNG format. Do not save a GIF or JPEG and then rename it -- it won't work. If you must change the format and/or name (say mummyk.jpg), you will need to change the CSS entry under #logo's background:, replacing logo.png with the new name:

Code Select Expand

background: url(../images/theme/mummyk.jpg) no-repeat;

Second, unless your new logo is exactly the same size as the old one (477 pixels wide by 213 pixels high), you may need to change those dimensions under #logo, especially if your logo is larger in either dimension. See how it looks with the new logo, and adjust the dimensions under #logo if necessary (especially if yours is larger and gets cropped off). If yours is much smaller, you may want to shrink the width and height dimensions under #logo to reduce wasted space.

Cheers MrPhil.
It's PNG format & has been resized accordingly, just stuck as to how we overwrite the file now ?

[bubbleybooboo]

surely the image has to be stored somewhere fot the theme to reference it?

It's where I keep trying to tell you.

You'll find it inside the theme's "theme" (I agree, that can be confusing. Whoever decided upon that name wants shooting!) directory, inside another directory, named "images" (Which is inside the theme's directory. "Sunshine"?).
