 How to Add / Change Your Logo 


With the ThriftStoreWebsites.com Site Builder, there are two ways to upload your logo, depending on size.

Method 1 - Predetermined Logo placement.  Each template is set for a logo to go in a specific area.  Any size image will be auto resized to fit the template

Method 2 - Your logo is bigger than 100 pixels in height. (Tall images will stretch the header. You will need to resize them to fit.)


Method 1

Log into the Control Panel and click on the Admin Home tab.




Mouse-over the Administration Tab, then select Site Header Content




Here, you will see the builder used to change the Header Area. Also, you will see a link, Upload a Logo. Click on it. 




Now click on the Browse Button






This will bring up a screen to select the logo from your computer.  Once you select your image click on Open.  Once it puts your file in the text area, scroll down to the bottom of the add logo screen and click on Update.

Your logo should now be updated. Check it for placement.


Method 2




Log into the Control Panel and click on the Admin Home tab.




Mouse-over the Administration Tab, then select Site Header Content







This time, instead of clicking Browse, let's first click somewhere in the Edit Area (Blue Arrow.) Then let's click on the Insert/Edit Image Button (Red Arrow.)





If your file is already uploaded, skip the next 2 steps, and simply select the image you want for your logo.

Next, select which folder you want to upload your logo to. Then click on the Upload Button.




Click the Browse Button, and select you logo from your computer files. After selected, click on the Open Button.



Once the files is opened, click Upload. Then click on Insert. Your logo is now on your site. (Make sure to save and check for positioning.)


Note: If you have a very large image to fill the entire header area you can insert the image from your Gallery in the same manner. Full header images should be no larger than 1000 pixels wide to prevent a horizontal scroll bar from appearing on your site. The image height should be adjusted (150-200 pixels) to insure an even balance between the header size and the overall page size.
