How do I change my page logo?

    I’m using the Chrome Revolution logo if that matters.

    Anyway, I’m in Edit Themes and looking at the source code. I thought maybe I could change the logo there, but the only mention I see of the word logo is:

    #logo {
    width: 550px;
    height: 101px;
    float: left;
    }

    I don’t see a file or something that I can change, although if I right click on the actual logo, it downloads as logo.jpg.

    Does anyone know how I can insert an image file I want to display as my logo?

    Thanks in advance,

    Matt

    Anyone?

    Looking in header.php, it seems that the logo image is hardcoded:

    <div id="logo">
        	<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/logo.jpg" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" /></a>
        </div>

    So either replace the logo.jpg file in the images directory with a new file named logo.jpg or change the code in header.php to point to your logo file.

    Thank you drmanry.

    I have no idea how I access header.php though. Do I do this through an ftp connection or can I access it in Dashboard somehow?

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Matt,

    From the dashboard, look for the “Appearance” heading in the left column. Under “Appearance” click “Editor”. With the edit page open, on the right hand side, you should see a column labeled “Theme Files”. Click on the one shown as “Header (header.php)”. Now you can edit the header.php file.
