Logo customization

You can upload your logo when you create your site by using the Basic Visual Setup Wizard or by accessing the Logo settings under Settings -> Look and Feel -> Basic Setup -> Logo

Uploading your logo

To upload your logo, click on the browse button and navigate to the folder on your computer where your logo is stored:


Logos must be in GIF, JPG, or PNG format

When you upload your logo, if it does not fit your current header size, it will be automatically resized.

A preview of your site is shown in the lower portion of your web browser. You can drag and drop your logo so that it is displayed anywhere on the header that you wish. You can also re-size your logo by clicking and dragging the sides of the logo

To accept the changes to your logo and its position, you can click either:

  • [Finish] to accept the change. This will take you to the View page for your home page
  • The right arrow to move to the next set in the Basic Visual Setup Wizard.

Clicking [Cancel] will take you out of the wizard and back to the Settings screen. None of your changes will be saved.

For advanced settings, please see Page header customization.

Notes on logo upload

Problem: images are not shown in File Management / Insert picture (you can only see file names) and are not displayed on your Wild Apricot website

This can happen if your images use CMYK color space instead of RGB one.

Normally web images are saved with RBG color space and images meant for printing are saved with CMYK color space. Some systems only support images with RGB color space, not CMYK. You can get more information on color spaces by clicking here.

  • To determine an image's color space go to: http://regex.info/exif.cgi
  • To convert an image from CMYK to the supported RGB color space you can use the free online tool found here: http://www.pixlr.com/editor/
    • Just open your image and save it as .jpg - this will automatically save it in RGB color space.
