This howto is a little one, it will only cover what steps must be taken to change the logo's of a webinterface.

Default the Citrix logo's are present. But sometimes people who maintain those interfaces want there customer logo build-in to the interface. Mind if you do this that you write down what you did cause if you have to do it a few months later you will have forgotten most of it I know from experience

How to find the logo's 

Browse to wwwroot\inetpub\citrix\metaframe\site\media. There is a gif file called citrix.gif  and webinterfacehead.gif which are the original gif files that make the the webinterface.

pic 1 original citrix logo. (citrix.gif)

pic 2 part 2 of the webinterface (webinterfacehead.gif)

These 2 pictures form the layout of the webinterface You can change them but keep in mind to make the logo's suitable that they fit!

Changing it to your own logo.

You can either rename the citrix.gif to citrix_old.gif or what ever pleases you. We decided to implement names as logo.gif topheader.gif etc who replace citrix.gif and webinterfacehead.gif. You can find both files in wwwroot/inetpub/citrix/metaframe/site/media.

The original file that hosts the location of the gif files is the layout.inc in wwwroot\inetpub\citrix\metaframe\site\include\ and looks like this.

Simply open layout.inc in notepad and search for citrix.gif and you will find it.

[code original layout.inc]

<td align="left"><img src="media/webinterfacehead.gif" hspace="15" alt="<%=gPropKey.getStaticString("VersionTitle")%>"></td>
    <td align="right"><img src="media/citrix.gif" hspace="15" alt="<%=gPropKey.getStaticString("Citrix")%>"></td> 

[/code original layout.inc] 

[code changed layout.inc]

 <table height="76" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" background="media/topgraphback.gif" border="0">
      <tr>
        <td><img height="76" src="media/dummy.gif" width="15"></td>
        <td vAlign="bottom">
        <img src="media/logo.gif" border="0" width="177" height="51"></td>

[/code changed layout.inc]

Before you start changing gif files save the original layout.inc first! otherwise you have to A: restore a backup or B: do a citrix repair.

After playing around with position I made a company logo for the company I work for. It has a more mature look then simply the citrixlogo's out of the box.

Well that was it about changing the webinterface logo's. You can do a lot more but keep in mind to make backups first of the files you are about to change! It takes more time to restore a tape or repair citrix then simply rollback a file
