I am totaly new to umbraco, I have to change some text and images in the site. The problem is that I cannot find the Images folder for the logo image that is in the templates. the folder is not in the Media section. I just want to change the header image but I cannot access the folder in the server. this is the info in the template:
Image can be inserted in two ways. Either they're uploaded and saved into the media library of Umbraco and can then be picked in the content section. Or they only exist on the file system as system graphics.
To change this you need to have access to the file system where the "Images" folder is located. Then you can override the "header_logo.png" with your new logo. Remember to keep a backup of the old logo if you need to change it back at a later stage. Also be aware that if you don't overwrite the logo using a new image with the same name but name it "header_logo2.png" then you will need to change the reference mentioned above as well.
I hope this helps - otherwise please let us know :)

The file system is not the same place where I change the content and where I can get into the sections of Media, Content, Settings, Develover, etc?
How do I get into the file system then?
Thank you very much for responding.
Hi Sita
No it's not the same thing.
The file system is the harddrive on the computer. Umbraco is a piece of software to edit the website.
What is your role with the website? Perhaps you need to have someone else change the logo for you if someone else knows a bit more about the site?
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Sita,
One other possible way of changing the logo is you dont have access to the images folder is to upload in the media folde directly.
Then from the properties tab you can get the url of the image uploaded and change it in your template.

Thanks again, great help!!!
