Understanding the Application Logo
The application logo is an image encoded in Base64, which amounts to a large string of characters.
Users can change the logo from the Application Preferences by providing the CSS parameter --gene-logo-background
with the Base64 version of the image as value. For more details, please refer to Section Setting Application Preferences.
Note that:
-
Many websites allow to convert images to Base64 for free.
-
If multiple formats are available for the encoding, use the following:
url(“data:image/XX;base64,XX=“)
. -
Make sure not to have any other text before
url
and not to have a semi-colon;
at the end. -
When pasting parameter value, make sure that the text is not cut at the end. If it is, this means that the image is too large and needs to be resized to something smaller before running the encoding to Base64.
