Hi, I’m wondering if anyone knows how I can either remove or edit the big Orthanc logo that shows up in explorer.html?
The answer is in the following post:

Quoting:
"Visibility is essentially to any open-source project. If you wipe out the Orthanc logo, users will not be advised that they use a free software that required a huge amount of work, and they won’t know that we need their support in order to pursue the development to the benefit of the whole medical imaging community. As a consequence, we don’t provide a configuration option to replace the logo in Orthanc Explorer.
If you still want to replace Orthanc’s logo by yours, you’ll have to compile from sources. You are obviously free to create such a fork and maintain it by yourself (including the Docker images). But remember that this process results in the creation a derivative work of Orthanc, which is covered by the GPL/AGPL licenses as soon as you ship the derivative work to a client (GPL/AGPL) or on a cloud platform (AGPL): In such a situation, the licenses oblige you to publish your fork as free software using a license that is at least as strong as the original license.

Well darn, that’d be a lot of work for just a simple alteration so I will hold off on that. Thanks for the quick reply, much appreciated!
If a company provides Orthanc to its clients and charges for its support and services, can that company put its logo in explorer.html? without wiping out the Orthanc logo and link to Orthanc official site, from explorer.html?
Any help on my question is highly appreciable!!
As stated in Sebastien’s message from June 2021: as long as you publish your code, you can replace the Orthanc logo or add your company logo in explorer.html.
