Group SP Site (Group image/logo Not Updating)
Maithili Dandige wrote:The new issue brought up is that in addition to the default photo not syncing seems like if new logo is uploaded by user it does not sync to SP. We have verified this is a bug and are working on fixing it. Please stay tuned.
Hey Maithili Dandige and Sheryl Nolan, has this been really fixed? Doesn't seem so. I just created an O365 group and changed the logo. It did not sync to the associated SP team site. I've now waited for around 2 hours and it still shows the default "initials" logo. So now OWA shows one logo (new) and SP shows another (default).
Jesper Simonsen same here. anything i try and updates, after few days it goes back to the jpg with background color. Please MSFT this is a mess, just let us be able to upload any logo that fits our business and org, especially allow us both png & jpg, b/s only png does keep the transparency, and the SP doesn't allow PNg. well, in our case our logo is rectangular, and I am not able to use 64*64, even if i crop some character bust still ugly & very squeezed ,
preferable if you allow both rectangular & square
preferable if we able to use PNG ( it help us to use transparent picture)
I have two findings I like to add:
If pictures don't show up, go to the Site Assets library and delete the __siteIcon__.jpg & png and within minutes the system will have updated them again.
Another thing I learned is that if you add pictures with transparency the site icon will turn black.
Wow, 3 days. Ok I spent the last 1hr trying to figure out how to do this with a Office365 Group and changing the logo for the SharePoint Online page.
I must say, SharePoint Online is a half-baked product.
It took me some investigation hours to recap new design of groups manaegd out of Outlook and Mail 365, forced by tickets of my clients complaining that external sharing is broken.
Btw: Share and and manage external users can't be managed anymore out SharePoint sites, use Outlook or 365 Mail online.
So let's focus on bright future and not on bad app continuity management of MS as provider, no I don't read every service update ;-)
It took here between about 20 hours until SharePoint site logo was updated.

You may not see the change in SP for 24 hours, most of which is browser caching. Clearing your browser cache should cut that to 1 hour.Got it. Thanks a ton. It wasn't 24 hours though, it took 3 days! But, yes it's now updated on the SP team site.
