Hi guys, I to am trying to add a logo to my header, i have the logo sitting on my desk top
its 1217 x 123 , i want to add this to my site MYBB 1.8

Im brand new to this type of thing so am learning,

I followed the instructions above and found this code

<div id="container">
<a name="top" id="top"></a>
<div id="header">
<div id="logo">
<div class="wrapper">
<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a>
<ul class="menu top_links">
{$menu_portal}
{$menu_search}
{$menu_memberlist}
{$menu_calendar}
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help" class="help">{$lang->toplinks_help}</a></li> etc etc etc

so how do i change this to add my logo, i know i have to put my logo png into a folder in back end, what folder should it be put into ??

thanks for all and any help on this.
so you want to change the logo... ok, this is the code for your logo.... and the part in bold refers to the logo image.... 

you can do it in 2 ways, first upload the image to your server inside the images folder

1. Now goto, ACP >> Themes >> Your Theme >> Scroll down to "Edit Theme Properties" >> Board Logo >> enter the path for the image you have uploaded (images/your-image.png) and save it
or
2. another method is to directly edit the img source link (the part in red below) and put the path for the new logo in place of "{$theme['logo']}"

you can do it either way, whichever you feel easy...
