Custom Logo Dimensions
You can edit your site's Header Settings to display a custom logo (illustrated below). With this option, you may upload an image that also acts as your Site Title. To do this, open the Header Settings dialog and make sure Logo is selected. Use the lists below to learn the specific dimensions at which you should upload your logo. Kolbe theme's logo dimensions are: 700 x 150 pixels (recommended image dimensions). The logo displays on the site at 350 x 75 pixels.
Custom Logo with Site Name Dimensions
Want to change your site's Header Settings to include a custom logo next to your Site Name (illustrated below)? Simply open the Header Settings dialog near the top of your site, and then select Both so that both a custom logo and site name appear in your Site Title. Kolbe theme's recommended image dimensions are 150 x 150 pixels. The logo displays at 75 x 75 pixels.
Displaying your logo at maximum resolution
To display your custom logo at maximum resolution, use the Recommended image dimensions column to identify the optimal dimensions at which you should upload your custom logo file.
Note that your custom logo will actually display at a smaller size than what is uploaded. The values listed in the Logo size displayed on site column are the size at which your logo will actually display on your website.
Essentially, it is recommended that you upload an image that is twice the size of the actual logo region. This means twice the amount of pixels will be packed into that region, allowing your logo to display at a crisp, high resolution.
Custom Button Dimension
With Kolbe, you can use the Buttons module to create buttons with customized images. Typical dimensions for 3-button layouts are 475 x 480 pixels and 4-button layouts are 355 x 480 pixels.
