Sponsor fields

Adding logos

1. Get the sponsor’s logo (SVG preferred, PNG with transparent background also works)
2. Recommended size: approximately 300×90 pixels (or similar aspect ratio)
3. Save to assets/images/sponsors/
4. Reference with full path: /assets/images/sponsors/logo.png

Logo tips

• SVG format is preferred (scales without quality loss)
• For PNG/JPG, use high resolution (2x display size)
• Ensure logos have transparent backgrounds
• Optimise file sizes for web (compress images)

Placeholder logo

The template includes a placeholder at assets/images/sponsors/sponsor-placeholder.svg. This shows “Sponsor Logo” with recommended dimensions. Replace it with actual sponsor logos, or use it as a reference for sizing.

If a sponsor doesn’t have a logo, their name will be displayed instead.

Tier display

Higher tiers display larger logos. The order in the file determines display order.

Minimal setup

If you don’t have tiered sponsorship, use a single tier:

tiers:
  - name: "Sponsors"
    sponsors:
      - name: "Sponsor Name"
        logo: "/assets/images/sponsors/logo.png"
        url: "https://sponsor.com"

Disabling sponsors

If you don’t have sponsors yet, disable the sponsors section. See Feature Toggles.
