PLOW Themes and Logos

All PLOW themes support a single logo image that can be updated through the Logo Control link under the Add-on Product Configuration section.  The display of the logo in the header varies with each theme:

PLOW Skin 1
There is no default logo for this theme.  Until you upload a logo through the logo control, the name of your library will appear in the upper left corner.  When you upload a logo, it will completely replace the library name in the header.  If you would like the name of your library to appear with a logo in this theme, you must include the name in the content of the logo image itself.
PLOW Skin 2
There is no default logo for this theme.  Until you upload a logo through the logo control, the name of your library will appear in the upper left corner.  When you upload a logo, it will completely replace the library name in the header.  If you would like the name of your library to appear with a logo in this theme, you must include the name in the content of the logo image itself.
PLOW Skin 3
The default logo for this theme is a picture of evergreen trees on a hill.  The library name appears on top of the logo image.  When you upload a new logo, it will replace the default image, and the name of your library will remain in front of the new image.  Your new logo should be exactly the same dimensions as the default logo.
PLOW Skin 4
The default logo for this theme is a rounded rectangle with a gray gradient fill.  The library name appears on top of the logo image.  When you upload a new logo, it will replace the default image, and the name of your library will remain in front of the new image.  Your new logo should be exactly the same dimensions as the default logo.
