Title: Template Files for Your Site Branding
Post by: Leo Blanchette on March 24, 2013, 18:11
Here is a quick .zip of specifically sized files you can use as templates for the changeable visual elements of your symbiostock theme. Watermark, paypal-sized-logo, network graphics...

If someone would like to make this zip/template package a little more professional with PSDs, AIs, with guides...and so forth, I'll swap it out and put it in the theme as an included zip.

These will be your branding elements which will show on your friend's sites as well.

edit - if you professionalize this, please email it to me leo[at]symbiostock.com

I put these together while I was doing my branding if anyone is interested in AI or Photoshop guides feel free to use.

(They are just a little over the attachment limit so this link is to Dropbox for download)

I just downloaded your templates Leo to see what I haven't branded yet. Where can I find network-logo and logo-for-paypal-checkout. I searched all my directories online but couln't find these two files anywhere.

These are just file you create using your logo/branding image that will show up as your network logo and your logo on the PayPal checkout page, not pre-existing files.  Does that help?

It helps  to know that these files are not pre-existing ... because I really thought I'm too dumb to find them   :D 
I guess I can customize the files of Leo, keep the names of the files as they are and than upload to the img-directory within the symbiostock theme, right? Or do I have to upload them in other directories?

You upload the images to your Media Library. Click on the image name in the media library. On the right it will show you the url. Copy and paste that in the proper space in the Symbiostock section. The paypal logo goes right above where you see the paypal IPN in the SEttings tab, and the site logo goes in the Network tab, towards the bottom.
