Simply navigate to the location of the logo on your local file system and select it. The logo should be in .PNG format. Click Submit. to save your changes

If your logo doesn’t align itself properly, you can use the Top and Left boxes to enter offset values (in pixels). Keep modifying the values until you get a look that you like.
