I just figured out how to replace a text logo with a image logo but I ran into another problem. The navigational bar is overlapping the logo. Can someone please provide some guidance on how I can place the logo above the navigational bar instead of behind it. All help is very appreciated. Thank you.
It will depend on what theme you have installed for your blog. Look into the images folder of your theme you're using and find the header graphic & replace it with the one you want to use. Check out the size of the old header graphics & replicate for the new one.
Thanks for your reply Neil. I am using a template from templatemonster.com. I didn't have an image folder, so I uploaded the pic using the media library then took the image url from that after it was created. I will try resizing as you suggested. Thanks again!
You can always find your theme in your site"s control panel ie www.yoursite.com/wp-content/themes/yourtheme. Good theme creators have a image folder in the script but it would appear yours didn't. It's best to check the size of the header graphic provided with the original theme first before working on a new one as the sizes might be totally different. Good luck with your blog. Neil
Some theme will have the buil-in option, that will enable to place your logo via wp-admin. Otherwise you can see the exact path of the logo image from the header.php file and then replace. It would normally be /wp-content/themes/yourtheme/images/logo.png
It depends on your theme . You can edit style.css for logo placement. Please send you url of website , I will help you in my spare time.
Put logo in div tag and play with these css attributes: float, margin, position, width, height I suggest you install in your FF browser Firebug. It's a great free tool for simulating CSS and html changes and makes it much easier to find the correct dimensions for the div.
TheWPMan is right about padding. I have modified the ccs on a couple of templates to suit my stuff. If you don't know ccs, you can always do as I did, set up a blog, study the ccs and find components you want to change. Search for html codes and the apply. After a bit you will figure out some of the basics.
