[Koha] Replacing existing images in Koha with our own

[David Liddle]

Aida, there is another method that can be used, which is similar to
what is described here:
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/HTML_%26_CSS_Library#Change_logo_and_background_color_of_masthead.
You would be using the system preference IntranetUserCss perhaps
together with StaffLoginInstructions to achieve your end result.

That's the method that our system uses. It doesn't change the fact
that permissions and links need to be correct, and it doesn't change
the possibility that files placed in the htdocs directory may be
overwritten. One advantage that I can think of over the method you
found is this: by defining the logo in IntranetUserCSS, the field
StaffLoginInstructions is left free for instructions and messages
only. Separating the two could reduce confusion and mistakes.

When I tried using it to copy the image to /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs nothing happened, so I asked one of our IT staff to install Filezilla for me so that I can at least move the files to these locations. I proceeded with the instructions and pasted the code to the StaffLoginInstructions, changed the IP: http://127.0.1.1 with our Koha OPAC IP but there's just a broken image where the logo is supposed to be. How in the world are others making these changes?
