Adding Your Logo – Adding Your Banner To WordPress Themes

The orginal question was regarding how and where you add a logo and banner to WordPress Themes.

Most WordPress themes will have that option under Appearance > Theme Options. I think that was what was meant by header. Most WordPress themes will have this logo or Blog title theme option available since it is a pretty standard for WordPress websites and all other types of websites for that matter as well.
Under Theme Options you should see >>>
Logo Type: for choosing whether you want a Blog Title or Logo Image displayed
Logo Image: Please enter url for logo image (300×105 pixel).
Main Image: Please enter url for main image (900×238 pixel).

Your particular WordPress theme will most likely have different logo or banner size dimensions than what is shown here. To modify or change the dimensions in your particular theme you would modify your theme’s header.php file. As an example I have posted the line of code from the theme header.php file that I am using as the example here.

<div id="logoimg"><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><img src="<?php echo $logoimage ?>" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>" border="0" width="300" height="105" /></a></div>

You would then just change the width and height dimensions to whatever you want or whatever works best for your logo / banner image. Once you change the header width and height dimensions you should now see the new size dimensional sizes displayed under your Theme Options. Good luck!
