Changing the logo image

Problem: Any image I pick to be the logo for my site seems to be smaller, or compressed, or the victim of a hit and run driver.

Hmmm... is there a trick to this? I have created a few images I want to use for logos for my geek site, which is using the XP theme. Those new images are in .gif format, and in the logo.html file, I have played around with it as well. Even to the point of specifiying the image size (width/height). The default size is 311x83, which is the size of the default logo that came with the theme I am using. Making the image larger or smaller, or playing with the logo.html file isn't helping.

I create images all the time (including for other CMS sites) and have never ran into this problem. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Would you mind to give us an URL to your site? Sometimes it's easyier to help when you see the problem Smile

Or at least tell us wich theme you are working at.

Well...
your code says:
Text Formatted Code
<img border="0" src="http://www.pocketmobile.net/layout/XP/images/logo.gif" width="240" height="83" alt="Pocket Mobile"></a>
 
but your image is 311*83px. I don't know the XP theme, but I would look in the header.thtml and adjust that size setting.
