Working With Templates - having a problem with a public Google Sites template and you can't locate that pesky rogue logo?

Change Your Sites Logo - are you having a problem with a public template and you can't locate that pesky rogue logo? 

ok.....

there are possibly a few ways the logo or image could be attached to the top of the page

click on more actions > manage site > colours and fonts > scroll down and click on Site header background image and see if that is where the logo is



if the logo is not there ..... click on more actions > manage site > site layout > change logo and see if it is there ......



And last but not least, the template logo could be part of the background image.



If this is the case you will need to click on view, save the image to your pc and then edit the image by placing your logo over the top for example in a program such as photoshop.

Let me know if this sorts out the situation for you.....

Tip - The Small Things

Even BIG professional web designers miss some basic things in Google site powered professional  website.
Some of them are:

1. Favicon:   Making a favicon and upload in Google sites is very simple. That gives you the personalised look.  That’s not very tough, right?... Go to favicon.cc and just make one favicon and upload it in Google site's attachments. (Ha ha, I know, most of them are aware of it, but even they are not doing it.).
2. Site header/ Background/ Wrapper images:   Some plain Background images are always not necessary too BIG, like this.

 

           You can make a header like this, instead of above.

    

  and make it repeat horizontally.   So we can reduce the size, and web page will load faster.

3. Logo:   It’s always nice to put a logo in separately uploaded as logo ( Site layout> Height: Use theme default (change logo)). So that, It’ll clickable to homepage. You can make a .png image with background as transparent.
