The Logo section behaves a little differently to a standard Image section, this is because it is designed to work with the Brand Quick Setup and automatically remember the image you upload as your logo or the text you entered if you created an app using the wizard as an alternative and use this every time you create a new App.
A Logo section is included in the MPA default template.
You can upload Jpg, Png and Gif images to a logo section. The recommended size of the logo is 1280 x 280 pixels, but it can be anything you want. You should consider the maximum computer size you have specified for your App when choosing your logo image dimensions.
You can customise the Logo Section by clicking the settings cog here you can:
Change the size
Use Text instead
Add a link to another section, page or external URL
No Logo No Worries
If you are new in business and don't have a logo image file yet, you can easily get around that. click on the settings cog for the logo section and add your business name or whatever text you wish to use in the Logo Text to use until you get your logo sorted.
If you have already uploaded a jpeg as your logo adding type in the Logo Text overrides the image file and the text will be displayed instead useful if you only want to use text for some Apps.
Alternatives To The Logo Section
Title Section Sometimes you might want to use your business name in a fancy Text style at the top of your App instead of a logo. You can do this by deleting the Logo section, or by moving it to the bottom of the App instead, and then add a Title section. In the Title section settings, You can select a cool font and color for your logo and even add your tag-line as subtitles.
Image Section
Using an Image section for your logo offers you a lot of customisation, you can add a title, subtitle, border or extra text as an overlay and you can even animate and add motion. This lets you makes more interactive logo with a call to action and a link for when they click. This works best if you use a banner style image with room for the text.
