Of course! It's really quite easy, but be sure to do it EXACTLY like I say. First, you need to open your wiki at the page MediaWiki:Monobook.css. Then, open a new tab or window, and find the link to your image. Make sure that you are on a page with no text, but just the image. Copy that to your clipboard (Ctrl+c). Now, go back to the MediaWiki:Monobook.css page. Click "edit" and make sure you are in WIKITEXT mode, not the WYSIWYG/Rich text editor. Just click the button on the top left of the field if you don't see standard wikitext markup, like '''bold''' text, <I>HTML</I> et al. Paste the link into the box, then you need to paste the following into the box:

#p-logo a {
background-image: url('http://www.domain.ext/path/to/logo.png') !important;
}

Now, cut the URL of you image that you just pasted, and paste it where the example URL is, making sure not to delete the parentheses or the apostrophes inside of the parentheses ('http://URL.goes.here/').

Also be sure to remove any excess text or line breaks above and below the CSS code. It should look something like this:

#p-logo a {
background-image: url('http://images.apple.com/home/2008/images/ipod_touch_20080909.jpg') !important;
}

Good luck! --CarbonFiberMan 18:35, 12 October 2008 (EDT)
