Steps to resize a rectangle logo into a square

(these are general steps, if you don’t know how to do an individual step you can google for instructions on your image editing software):

  • Open the rectangle logo image in your editing software
  • Crop any excess whitespace from around the image
  • Using the image menu resize the logo to have a width of 200px (making sure to maintain the aspect ratio)
  • The height of the image will now be less then 200px
  • Select and copy the entire image
  • Make a new image that is 200px by 200px, a white background would suit the website best but there may be another color that suits the logo better
  • Paste the logo into this new image
  • The pasted logo will still be selected, hold down the shift and use the mouse to position the logo within the new image
  • Save and your done!

 

Trouble shooting

If you are saving your images from Adobe Photoshop (or similar applications) make sure you use the save for web setting. Images saved as CMYK will not be visible on all browsers. You need to make sure that the images are saved as RGB.
