Footer

Affiliate logos

Affiliate logos enable Site Owners/Administrators to display a set of logos of affiliated organisations, funders, etc. in the site's Footer, with the option to link each logo to the relevant website. The Affiliate logo region can be placed above or below your site's footer.

Background images

Background images can be placed in the Footer in order to provide visual interest. The Botanic Garden and Artboretum site has a background image in the Footer:

As these background images will be overlayed by textual content, consideration needs to be given to the legibility of the text.  To ensure text legibility, we recommend that you:

  1. Use images that are predominantly the same tone (i.e. mostly dark or most light)
  2. Use images that are either mostly dark or mostly light (avoid images which are mostly mid-tone)
  3. Set the text colour of the text appropriately (i.e. very dark text on a light image, or very light text on a dark image)
  4. Once in place, review your background image / text colour combination to assess the legibility
