My first attempt at an Oxwall theme. This is a modified Aerial theme with a Black - Red - Gray color scheme and logo image.

*** Create or scale your logo to 280x80px. Save it as "logo.png" in the images folder (replacing the existing one). A psd file is included.

Comments appreciated. Hope some can use this.

logo.png replaced but logo not changing! what should do?

Hi Haradhan
As with all themes, if you uploaded the logo.png file AFTER you activated the theme, you should also upload it to your ow_static/themes/arerialredux/images/ folder.

But, the proper way to do it however is to:

put your site in 'dev_mode'
Go to 'ow_includes' and edit 'config.php'
set "DEV_MODE" to true
press F5 from any page on your site
then set "DEV_MODE" back to false

Let me know if any problems.

Thanks!!

If dev_mode is true, ow_static will be overwrited.

Enable dev_mode and upload your logo in 'ow_themes/yourtheme/images/'

Thanks Max. That's what I was trying point out. If the theme is activated and then the image uploaded to ow_themes. Then, dev_mode needs to be enabled for the sample logo to be over written in ow_static.
