Is full height logo image support available in Chota?

Hi,

I love the light weight and design choices that went into chota. I'm trying to use it to replace my Bootstrap-based Pelican-Alchemy-PWA theme with a lighter weight, chota-based variant that handles light/dark preferences as gracefully as chota does.

I've found that chota sites seem to favour a landscape format logo. When I try to slot in my portrait format logo, the logo's height is shrunk and the logo image's width is proportionally compressed. The result is a miniature logo like this:

Is there a preferred way to use a taller logo image in chota while still using using chota's grid and nav tags?

I'd like the logo to be bigger and I'd like to control the vertical positioning of the text to the right of the logo. I'm trying to get closer to Pelican-Alchemy-PWAs overall look on desktop and mobile. I'd appreciate any comment on whether that is possible with chota.

Obviously the screenshots at Pelican-Alchemy-PWA theme were rendered on a desktop screen. To see how it renders on a mobile there's a version of it in use at Research on History and Technology if you don't mind the self-signed SSL cert.

If re-styling Pelican-Alchemy-PWA with chota is possible, I'll convert it to a pelican theme and release it to the pelican community if that is OK?

Thanks for your help and thanks for the lovely framework Jenil.

Lee
