The logo on the top right hand corner of the forum that reads Simple Machines by default, can be removed, if desired. Or, you can simply replace that image (Themes>default>images>smflogo.png) with one of your own. Either of these can be useful, if you already have a logo for your site and your forum is wrapped inside your site.

Example: Logoremove.png

Here's how you can remove the logo.

First, you will need a FTP program to download your index.template.php file with. The file can be found in the <theme_name> directory inside of the Themes directory. Then Locate and delete following code:

SMF 1.1.x (Core)

 				<td align="right" class="catbg">
					<img src="', $settings['images_url'], '/smflogo.gif" style="margin: 2px;" alt="" />
				</td>

SMF 2.0 (Curve)

<img id="smflogo" src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/smflogo.png" alt="Simple Machines Forum" title="Simple Machines Forum" />

Upload the modified index.template.php over the existing one with your FTP program and your logo image in the forum header should no longer appear.

Note: The code you must remove may vary from theme to theme. If you cannot find the same code as highlighted here, search for similar code and try to work with that or consult with the theme author for help with the particular theme you are trying to do this for.
