change image types to either png or jpg

Dear Zen Cart,

I am trying to change the file logo.gif to logo.png or logo.jpg for the \includes\templates\classic\images template and was wondering how I do this?

Respectfully,

unfortunatly this fix did not work. I changed: includes\languages\english\header.php logo.gif file to logo.png and it wont accept the logo.png file on the zen store.

Please explain "won't accept" ?

What I mean is when I change the php page to look for the logo.png file, it does not show the logo that I uploaded. It then pulls the logo.gif file from includes/templates/template_default/images/logo.gif

The correct path is this:

includes/templates/classic/images/logo.gif

Re: change image types to either png or jpg

yes i know, it goes to the correct path when I have the logo.gif file loaded.

This doesnt solve the problem in which I am trying to have the logo.gif file changed to a logo.png file

Re: change image types to either png or jpg

since you are still using the classic contemporary green template instead of the override system..

Have you edited this file:

includes/ languages/ english/ classic/ header.php

Re: change image types to either png or jpg

Ok,
On a test site of 139h

includes/ languages/ english/ classic/ header.php

define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif');

Change to:

define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.png');
Now create your new image in photoshop and upload this new logo.png photo to:
includes/ templates/ classic/ images
