First off...wow! This is way cool. Being a n00b, how do I go about putting my logo up top? Any help would be great! Thanks.
what durkin wants to say is:
"how do i "brand" the whole activeCollab installation in my corporate identity?"
this feature (for example uploading company logo thats display in the header) is not integrated and not planned. but you are free to modify the header for yourself.
check in application/layouts/dashboard.php around line 21 and remove the <h1> thing, and replace it with your logo or CompanyName. but it would be very kind if you put a link to www.activeCollab.com in the footer.
(by the way in the footer is your company name displayed, right next to "generated in x.xxx seconds)

In my opinion, developers should add "powered by activeCollab" button on top, and a link in footer and leave the things to be changable at user's will. The top button should be on visible place (user can see without scrolling it).
just my 2 cents :)

Currently you'll need to hack the system to add your logo. In the near future you'll have config options for that (logo, site name etc).

Great news Ilija!
Keep up the great work :)
best regards.
As a work around, until editable footers and headers are incorporated into the system, here is a way you can quickly get your logo into the top of the website:
a. get a banner, preferably something 800Wx100H or smaller.
b. make a folder at root /images/
c. put the image in your folder. /images/mylogo.jpg
d. paste <img src="/images/mylogo.jpg" alt="My Logo"> right after <div id="headerWrapper">
in the following documents:
- /www/application/layouts/dashboard.php
- /www/application/layouts/administration.php
e. after <div id="headerWrapper"><body> in the following:
- /www/application/layouts/project_website.php
f. after <body> in the last document:
- /www/application/layouts/dialog.php
It's rough, but it's a work-around.
Make notes so you can remove it later when a more elegant solution comes along.
Cheers,
Chris

i just did this - works great! thanks for the hack - this was exactly what i needed as i started using this and I don't have much programming know-how! looking forward to branding being implemented in later versions.

everyone: you can add your logo with CSS:
go to assets\themes\default\stylesheets\general\construction.css and add
background: #fff url("logo.png") top left no-repeat;
padding-top: 50px;
to body{}
which will display your company logo on every page in the upper left.
