Customize Magento template

Question

I've installed some theme, which has header logo defined in header.phtml like this:

<img src="<?php echo $this->getLogoSrc() ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->getLogoAlt() ?>" />

I don't really want to alter this template, also in that .phtml file it says not to edit it. How can I override this getLogoSrc most efficiently?

Answer 1

In the web admin, go to System>Configuration>Design and scroll down to Header>Logo Image Src. Insert the filename that you have saved in /skin/frontend/default/new_theme/images/ and click Save.

Answer 2

Go to your template's images folder e.g.: /skin/frontend/default/new_theme/images/

and replace the logo image in that folder with your new Logo
