I've purchased Swank and I'm having an issue configuring the logo in the header. I've had similar problems with other 3rd party themes...we don't get log in info to the 3rd parties site, so getting support is difficult. And, their instructions are very general, not always specific to the theme.
They do have theme setup instructions here: https://prettydarncute.com/swank-setup-tutorials/
So, the CSS they provide isn't needed because Swank already has the image URL put in to the class. However, I updated the two logo files to the image I needed, uploaded them and I got a bunch of nothing.
It says they've disable the logo feature that is built in to WordPress, but I'm beginning to think maybe they haven't.
Any thoughts or similar experiences with Swank?
Thank you, Jared

Have you checked the Genesis Header option to display the image logo instead of dynamic text ?
(Appearance > Genesis > Theme Settings > Header)
July 3, 2014 at 7:34 am #112849keyelementmediaMemberThat did get the image to show, thank you. Her example images on her site are so small you can't read any of the text. The text title shows centered, I'd like the image to be centered as well. I checked the CSS for and text-align is set to center, but I don't see anything to put the image center?
Thank you, Jared

Find this in your CSS stylesheet:
.header-image .site-header .wrap {
background: url(images/regularlogo.png) no-repeat;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
}Replace it with:
.header-image .site-header .wrap {
background: url(images/regularlogo.png) no-repeat center;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
}You are removing the text-align: center; and adding center to the background.
That should do the trick!

Thank you, Jared
July 10, 2014 at 1:10 am #113701iellisMemberIs there really no way to upload/add your header logo image from the admin panel?! The above solution works fine for me to set up the site, but what about when the client wants to change their logo in a year?....
Any thoughts?

You would have to add support for custom header in your function.php file:
//* Add support for custom header
add_theme_support( 'custom-header', array(
'header_image' => '',
'header-selector' => '.site-title a',
'header-text' => false,
'height' => 100,
'width' => 200,
) );You would change the height and width to your own dimensions, and change a few bits of CSS to make it work.
The reasoning for Swank using this method is to add the logo to the background to keep it responsive.
Hope this helps!
August 19, 2014 at 1:13 pm #119832abovethebuzzMemberI too am having issues getting my logo to show up. I first tweaked and uploaded the regular and retina logo images via filezilla, but then also added them into the media library and edited the css code. Still nothing. Right now the text that is there overlaps on the iPhone so I want to make sure it's responsive.
Thanks!
~KatieAugust 19, 2014 at 2:03 pm #119848keyelementmediaMemberYour URL would help, but it sounds like you have text and a logo in the header?
Thank you, Jared

Pretty Darn Cute Design SupportAugust 19, 2014 at 2:19 pm #119853SusanModerator@abovethebuzz: It appears the reason your logo isn't appearing is that you haven't switched to display the logo instead of dynamic text. Go to Dashboard > Genesis > Theme Settings > Header > Display Logo Header.
If that does not resolve your issue, please submit a support ticket to us at Pretty Darn Cute Design.
Thanks!
