To modify the logo
- Make your new logo (the default logo size is 150x40)
- Drop the file into ../xwiki/skins/default
- modify the last line of style.css file to have your logo filename
To modify the background color of the heading bar (make it white say)
- in xwiki.css add the folowing line to the #banner
background-color:#ffffff;
if you want to change the height of the top heading/banner/logo
- in xwiki.css modify #banner height for the desired pixel height
easiest way to ensure consistent display of the logo if you want to change the
logo size is
- modify the following line in header.vm
<img src="$logourl" alt="XWiki" width="150"
height="40"/>
to have the proper width and height of your logo. Make sure that the height is
no bigger than the banner height in xwiki.css
- Mark Lichman
Note: if your logo width is smaller than the default, you will likely have a
tiled logo display unless you remove background doubling. Cheap way to solve
this for all browsers is to shrink the logo size in header.vm

Subject: [xwiki-users] Xwiki Logo
Can someone explain how to change the xwiki logo in the upper left
corner of the pages so that all of them will be changed? I also want to
remove that gradient blue bar out of there so I can just put my company
logo on it and not worry about it looking funky. Is it really as
difficult as the howto on the
xwiki.org site suggests or has someone
developed a quick and dirty howto on this? I am new at CSS and
inevitably will break something if I go messing with the skins.
Peace be with all of you,
