How to change logo in magento?

As you start to customize your newly installed Magento 1.6 webstore, you'll probably want to change the logo that displays in the top right section of the header on each page. This can be easily accomplished in the Magento 1.6 Admin Panel at any time.

Uploading your logo to Magento

In Magento 1.6, to change the logo you simply have to specify a new URL path to the logo. If you want to place the logo in the same folder as the default one, you'll have to use cPanel's File Manager or FTP. Each logo is relative to the template you are using. If you change the theme on your website, you'll have to upload the new image.

While this may sound complicated, it keeps the files and folders of Magento organized.

With your FTP program (in this example we'll use FileZilla), go to the root folder of Magento

• Go to skin/frontend/default
• From here you'll need to select the template you are using. Currently we're using the "modern" template so we'll click on that folder
• Now, click on the images folder
• Select the logo file, and upload the file

Setting the path to the logo in Magento

Now, that you have uploaded the image of your logo to Magento 1.6, we'll need to tell Magento where it is. Changing the file path or URL to your logo in Magento 1.6 is easily accomplished in the Magento Admin backend

An important information to share. Here is an another way to change the logo on Magento platform:

Doing it properly will mean your change won't get overridden by a possible update carried out later on. It's a bit of a different process to doing this in the back-end than the front-end. But follow these steps and you can do it without touching core code.

Firstly, you're going to need to make a module in order to do it. Make your module, call it whatever you want and in your config.xml add this

<stores>
<admin>
<design>
<package>
<name>skin_name</name>
</package>
<theme>
<default>skin_name</default>
</theme>
</design>
</admin>
</stores>

Replace skin_name with something that makes sense. Then create this folder, replacing skin_name again:

{magento root}/skin/adminhtml/default/skin_name/images

Now, in the images folder you can create a GIF file named logo.gif which will override the default one. logo.gif is specifically stated in the adminhtml templates so if you want to change the file type/name you'll need to override the template that references the logo too.
Optional - Changing the file name/type

If you do want to change the image used, create this folder (same deal with replacing skin_name):

{magento root}/app/design/adminhtml/default/skin_name/template/page/

And create header.phtml within that folder. Copy the contents of:

{magento root}/app/design/adminhtml/default/defaut/template/page/header.phtml

and replace:

<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/logo.gif') ?>

with your chosen image, located in the skin you created earlier like this:

<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/my_shiny_new_logo.png') ?>

Oh man..... what a detailed share. This share would blast the all other share. Everything is described one by one with every tutorial.

One of the many things to personalize for your store will be changing the logo in transactional emails.

Thanks for sharing steps to change logo, so good :D

That can be very helpful! Thanks for sharing!

Hi,
Basic knowledge about the default logos:

At first you have to know that there is not only one logo to replace in your store. By default Magento makes use of these 3 logos:

Default Magento Header Logo

The logo in the header section of your store frontend
Default location: skin/frontend/default/YOURTHEME/images/logo.gif

Default Magento Email Logo

The logo in all transactional emails
Default location: skin/frontend/default/YOURTHEME/images/logo_email.gif

Hi,
The easiest and fastest way to change all 3 default Magento logos is to replace the logos on your FTP server. To do that just login to your server using FTP and navigate to this folder: skin/frontend/default/YOURTHEME/images. There you find the following files:

logo.gif
logo_email.gif
logo_print.gif

But as you can see in the image below your theme can be build different from the Magento default theme. Here you see the FTP of my theme pt004. If you want to change the logo of that theme you should go to skin/frontend/pt004/default/images/ In your own theme it can be done differently, but the structure would be the same

You can now replace the default logos by uploading your own logos with the same file names. (Do not forget to flush cache!) Done! Now you see your own company logo on all mentioned places. OK, so far so good.

But what to do if you don't want to use a GIF but a PNG or JPG? No problem! You can easily define the the logos for each of the 3 logos in your Magento backend. Scroll down and I will show you.

Attachment 4002

Change the default Magento GIF logo to your own PNG or JPG logo

* In your Magento backend navigate to: System > Configuration > Design > Header

* In the field Logo Image Src you can now replace images/logo.gif with your own filename like images/mylogo.png.
* You can also define the alt tag of your logo image in the field Logo Image Alt.
