# Brand your workspace

Branding makes your own domain look like yours: your name in page titles, your favicon in the browser tab, your logo and colour on pages and link preview cards. Anything you leave blank falls back to Markdrop's.

Branding shows on your own domains. Admins and the owner change it on the **Look and domain** tab of the workspace's settings. A preview on the right, **How your links look**, updates as you edit, on a light or dark background.

## Names

- **Workspace name** is what members see inside Markdrop. Up to 80 characters.
- **Site name on your pages** is shown in the header and link previews on your domain, like `Acme Docs`. Up to 60 characters. Members also see it as the team's name, as in "Acme team".

## Logo, colours and favicon

| Setting | What to know |
| --- | --- |
| **Favicon** | PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF, under 2 MB. Resized to 128 pixels. |
| **Logo** | Same file types and size. Shown on link preview cards and in your domain's header. Resized so its longest side is at most 512 pixels. |
| **Logo background** | The ground behind your logo. **Automatic** follows the reader's theme. Pick **Light** for a dark logo, **Dark** for a light one, or **Checker**. |
| **Accent colour** | Buttons, links and highlights on your domain use it. Blank uses Markdrop's blue. |
| **White-label preview cards** | Removes "Published with Markdrop" from cards and titles. |

The favicon and logo save as soon as they upload. Everything else waits for **Save changes** in the bar at the bottom; **Discard** throws away unsaved edits.

Markdrop re-encodes every uploaded image as a fresh PNG and keeps only the pixels, so an animated GIF keeps only its first frame.

> **Tip**
>
> Logos drawn in white disappear on a light background. Check both themes in the preview, and set **Logo background** to **Dark** if you need to.

## Viewer controls

Under **Viewer**, choose what readers get around a document on your own domain:

- **Full**: visitors can leave full screen and see document details.
- **View only**: no controls for signed-out visitors. The page is the document and nothing else.

This setting only ever applies on your own verified domains, never on markdrop.in.
