How to Add Logos to Your Farming Simulator Server Page

This guide shows you how to add your own logos to your Farming Simulator 25 Dedicated Server. The logos appear directly in the server browser and make your server instantly recognizable to players. Configuration is done entirely via the dedicatedServer.xml – no additional mod is needed.

Requirements

• An already set up Farming Simulator 25 Dedicated Server
• Access to the server directory via FTP or directly on the machine
• Two images in PNG format in the following sizes:
  • 656 x 150 pixels – Server logo (larger, detail view)
  • 728 x 90 pixels – Banner logo (smaller, list view)

Step 1: Create the logos

The logos must meet the following requirements:

• Format: PNG
• Server logo: exactly 656 pixels wide and 150 pixels high
• Banner logo: exactly 728 pixels wide and 90 pixels high
• Recommended: Transparent background, readable text, no details that are too small
• Maximum file size: 2 MB per image

Create the images with a tool of your choice (Photoshop, GIMP, Canva or an online editor) and export them as PNG.

Step 2: Place logos on the server

The logos must be accessible to the server. You have two options:

• Local in the server folder: Place the PNG files directly in the main directory of your server (where dedicatedServer.exe is located). Then reference them only by filename
• On a web server: Upload the images to a publicly accessible web server and use the full URL

Step 3: Edit dedicatedServer.xml

Stop your server before changing the configuration. Then open the dedicatedServer.xml in your server's main directory with a text editor.

Add or adjust the following configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no" ?>
<dedicatedServer>
    <name>My FS25 Server</name>
    <description><![CDATA[
        <p>Welcome to my server!</p>
    ]]></description>
    <password>JoinPassword2025</password>
    <maxPlayers>16</maxPlayers>
    <logo>
        <image>656x150</image>
        <path>serverlogo.png</path>
    </logo>
    <banner>
        <image>728x90</image>
        <path>serverbanner.png</path>
    </banner>
    ...
</dedicatedServer>

Explanation of the entries:

• <logo>: Section for the large server logo (656 x 150 pixels)
• <banner>: Section for the small banner (728 x 90 pixels)
• <image>: The pixel size of the logo – 656x150 for the logo, 728x90 for the banner
• <path>: The filename or URL to the image. If the file is in the server main directory, just the filename is enough (e.g. serverlogo.png). Alternatively a full URL (e.g. https://yourdomain.com/images/serverlogo.png)
• You can configure both logos or just one of them

Step 4: Complete example

A complete example with both logos as local files:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no" ?>
<dedicatedServer>
    <name>My FS25 Server</name>
    <description><![CDATA[
        <h2>Welcome to Farm Life - Your FS25 Roleplay</h2>
        <p>Please enter your login credentials:</p>
        <p>Username</p>
        <p>Password</p>
    ]]></description>
    <password>secret123</password>
    <maxPlayers>16</maxPlayers>
    <logo>
        <image>656x150</image>
        <path>my_logo.png</path>
    </logo>
    <banner>
        <image>728x90</image>
        <path>my_banner.png</path>
    </banner>
</dedicatedServer>

Step 5: Start the server and check

1. Save the dedicatedServer.xml
2. Restart your server
3. Open Farming Simulator 25 and go to the multiplayer area
4. Search for your server – the logos should now appear in the server browser and in the server detail view

Difference between the two logo sizes

You can use both logos or just one. For a professional appearance, we recommend embedding both sizes.

Common problems

Logos not displayed:

• Are the PNG files in the correct folder? For local paths they must be in the server main directory
• Are the width and height exactly correct? (656x150 or 728x90 pixels)
• Are the images really PNG? JPG or other formats don't work
• When using a URL: Is the image publicly accessible without a password?

Logos distorted or wrong size:

• Server logo must be exactly 656x150 pixels
• Banner must be exactly 728x90 pixels
• Other sizes will be displayed distorted or not at all

Server won't start after changes:

• Check the XML for typos – a missing < or > makes the file invalid
• Make sure the image paths are correct
