You need to save a logo image to your computer. Go to your team page, click Add image, then on the next page, click upload images and choose the saved logo from wherever you saved it. Once the image is approved (it will have a red border until it is) you can add it as the team's logo.
At the moment, there is a slight bug with logos though. They will only show on the pitch when you use a game name, not for Blackbox games or games launched from the gamefinder.
Oh, and the pitch size is 395 x 450 pixels, so your image should be no bigger than that.
Edit: I use GIMP, other people have recommended http://bigtroph.com/ and pixlr, which are both online image making tools. |

Just to piggyback, player image max size is 30kB, and recommended pixels is 95 x 145. I put my file to that many pixels but the file size is too big so it gets bumped. Tips? |

Sann -
Save it as .jpg or .gif
or if you use photoshop or the like there is an option that says Save for web. This compresses the file. |

I dont think fumbbl supports bmp though may be wrong, I think the file has to be either .jpg .gif or .png
but png files are always the biggest. |

Couple of things, some already mentioned:
1. file size 30kb or less for player portraits, this limit does not apply to team logos.
2. File formats: .jpg, .gif & .png. Extension must be lowercase
3. Your pictures need to be approved before you can use them. If there is a red border on them they are awaiting approval, black is approved.
4. If you add a team logo you must have something (even just a period) in your team bio or no one but you can see the logo when you look at the team page.
5. Sadly your team logo will probably not show up on the field if your game is arranged through game finder as there is currently a bug.
6. For the love of all that is good, use transparency people! Your white and black boxes make me cry... |

Use the "save for web" option when saving your files. It will give you several options to better control your file size to stay under the limits while maintaining the optimum image quality. |

If you want your logo to appear on the field in league games, you need to use either .gif or .png with transparent backgrounds for the best effect. |

A point to mention: other people can't see your logos on the team page unless the bio also contains something, at least a space. So only Pretty 'n Pink is visible from those four. Though it is a nice logo. |

I have updated the bio.
Btw. Is it possible with BBCode to get round edges for table? If yes, whats the syntax?
Thx again.
