| 15 | Many methods can be used to change your wiki's logo. The method described here is the simplest of all: | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | * Choose an existing image or create a new one | ||
| 18 | * Resize it so that it is 220 pixels wide and 80 pixels high | ||
| 19 | * Save it as a PNG file and name it "logo.png" | ||
| |
7.1 | 20 | * Upload the image as an attachment on the color theme page (e.g. for the Flamingo skin ##FlamingoThemes.FlamingoDefaultTheme##) and then change the logo in the editor |
