Providing the client some administrative branding can be quick and easy. Here’s how to replace the default WordPress “W” logo in the administrative header with a custom alternative.

First, create an image that fits the allocated space. As of WordPress 2.8, the logo is a 30 pixels wide and 31 pixels tall transparent GIF. When using a transparent GIF or 8-bit PNG, ensure that the image matte matches the header background color: hex value 464646.

A logo named “custom_logo.gif” inside the template directory’s image subfolder can substitute the default WordPress logo with the following code inside the theme’s “functions.php” file.
