Hello 

I try to change my logo but i have a problem. 

I have created my own logo with Gimp (1920*1080) but when i upload it, the logo is very small.

I don't know how do this ? 

Thanks in advance
hi, i think you confused with logo and background image.
a logo is a small image, while the other one can be also
1920x1080.

if is a background image, this one must be charged on your hosting space.
usually in your hosting space, you have a htdocs folder.
open this one and inside you have other folders.
one of them is "images".
open that folder and copy your image here.
after you have copy your image in the hosting space,
you can go in your acp panel.
in the top menu, choose "templates & style".
after, in the center you can watch your themes.
choose (for example) default like theme to change.
here in the center, choose "global.css".
in the center, bottom of the menu, choose "edit stylesheet: advanced mode".
just inside the script you can read "body".
this is my first rows on the body script:

background-image: url(images/titanic.jpg);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
opacity: 75%;
bbackground: #fff;
color: #333;

play with opacity like you want and you can see your picture less or more.

my image is "titanic.jpg".
you have to change this part with the right name of your picture.

hope i have helped you.
Thanks for your answer,

that i don't understand,

This is why the original myBB logo is correct while mine is very small? for both have the same dimensions.

here is a picture of my board with the small logo :

Thank in advance
Are you using a theme which defines a custom class containing the logo?  If so, would think replacing the current image filename with the original MyBB image would be small as well.

Or just switch theme to default with the same graphic.  Should resize to the expected dimensions.  BTW, you've removed the powered by MyBB in your footer.  See support eligibility guidelines.
I just add the "powered by MyBB, (i didn't know about this rule).

i bought deviance skin,
I will try this during the day and i'll keep you in touch

Thanks

EDIT : when i switch to default mybb theme i got this :

A big Logo as you can see :

Only mentioned changing to default as a trouble shooting measure.

Your theme is resizing the image.  A quick look with developer tools suggest this is "header-mobile bg-primary header-mobile-fixed".  I would contact the author for help or explanation.  No idea if this expected behaviour.
Thank,

i will see too with the developper if he can help me

EDIT : problem solved !

the way to do : i change
max-h-35px
to 
max-h-85px
in header template.

Thank for help !
