Adding company logo to Output Skins

I uploaded to my RoboHelp project my company's logo that was created for black/dark background as is in the Skin Header. It is visible in RoboHelp project skin. The Header height is 60 (I understand this cannot be configured). My image is 100 px (width) and 57 px (height) and I entered the logo width as 100 px (i.e. under the Header>Logo>uploaded logo option.

However, when the project is generated and displayed in the browser, it isn't visible (see image: HTML5 output preview in browser). It doesn't matter if the image is a jpeg or png; I tried both.

What am I doing wrong?

Judy posted a follow up in this thread. See that for how the image size was fixed.

Can you insert some images. Use the photo icon and paste the image in the dialog that displays. You have to click the grey area in the dialog before you paste.

I haven't tested this but I don't think you are doing anything wrong. It sounds like an issue I hit a few years back where your logo gets stretched/distorted to fit.

What I did was create an image of the size required where the outer parts where the header colour and the logo sat within it. That way the whole image is the size required but it looks like the logo is just what you want.

Hope that makes sense.

I think I understand you. But, the logo is to the limits of image; there is no white space at the edges.

What I did do was set the width to less that the image; for example the image's width is 150 px and I set the width to 120 px and it looks OK. But, when I set it to less (100 px) or the exact width of the image (150 px), both looked distorted. The image was finally not touching the edges of the header but there was a bit of space above and below.

Just trial and error, I guess.

Do you have spaces in the file name? I had the same thing once and using underscores solved it for me.

Yes I do. I will put underscores and see if it works. Thanks.

It works. Thanks.

Another question about the logos in the skin: No matter what size image I put in the size less width and height), RoboHelp always "stretches" the image to fill out the whole header height. If the header is 60 px (I understand the header height cannot be changed in RoboHelp) and I insert a graphic that is 35 px or 55 px height, it doesn't make a difference they both fill out the whole header height. I set the width to be what the graphic width is,

Any suggestions what I am doing wrong.
