Dawn Theme Troubleshooting - Logo Size Really Small When Uploaded

Topic summary

Logo uploaded at 200×200 px appears much smaller than expected in a Shopify store using the Dawn theme. A screenshot was provided to illustrate the issue.

Most likely cause suggested: the image file contains substantial white space (padding) around the actual logo, so the theme scales the full canvas, making the visible mark look tiny.

Proposed actions:

  • Crop the logo image to remove excess white space and re-upload.
  • Share the store URL (and password, if applicable) so others can inspect the live site and verify whether container settings or other theme constraints are affecting size.

Status: no confirmed fix yet. Community members requested a link to diagnose further; outcome pending additional details.

Hi,

I have read that the ideal size for the logo on shopify would be 200x200px, so I have resized my logo to that size.

But when I upload it to the website, it looks really small.

How do I fix that?

Thank you in advance,

Without seeing this on your shop I could only assume: the image itself has lots of white space surrounding in. If the assumption was correct, cropping the image will help.

If you’re not sure if the logo has lots of space around it consider posting a link where we can see it.

Hi @tigas31

Can you kindly share your store link (with the password, if any) with us? We will check it and suggest you a solution if possible.
