On my site woking50plus.co.uk I have just acquired a new logo. If I just replace my old logo with the new one you get what you can see at the moment.
This looks a little odd. I'd like to have the logo extended over the full height of the banner,
If I generate a new image with the logo and website name two things occur that I don't like:
1. The website name is also displayed over the new image. There is an item which complains about the overwriting and says it's solved by removing the web site name, but how do I do that?
2. The new image height is truncated so not all the logo shows. So what's the required height of a banner image?
Thanks
I don't think there's a 'correct' size as such, as I believe the banner area on the Bootstrap theme that you're using will expand to accommodate whatever logo height you are using.
However, I agree that it does look a bit odd, but perhaps this is as much to do with the white border around the logo as it is the size of the logo?
I think I would aim to crop out as much of the border as possible, and then make the rest transparent (save as a PNG file since JPEG doesn't support transparency), or the same colour as the background.
You could also try the Fresh theme as this uses a white background on the banner area and so the logo border won't be visible. Or experiment with the other banner options available with the Bootstrap theme.
To try things out you may want to use the test site version of your site, though do read the notes on the test site first!
Thanks

Thank you.
I got the logo cropped as you suggested but left with a small white ring around it. I thought it would look odd without that white ring, because of the lack of contrast between the logo and the background.
It certainly looks much better now.
Thank you
