Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ figure in the first page

[iperten]

Dear all good morning.

I'd like to insert a figure in the first page of a report I wrote: what do I have to do?

Basically, I want it in the page where the title, author and date of the report are.

Thank you.
Kind regards,
Mattia.

Use the titlepage environment to create a freestyle title page on your own. Inspiration may come from some of the titlepages examples.


Best regards

I inserted my university logo into my thesis titlepage.

try this:

Code: Select all

\makeatletter
\providecommand{\@email}{}
\newcommand{\emd}[1]{\renewcommand{\@email}{\href{mailto:#1}{#1}}}
%define a variable that'll contain the word count text.
\providecommand{\@wordcount}{}
\newcommand{\wordcounter}[1]{\renewcommand{\@wordcount}{Word count: #1}}
%define  new command for subtitling the thesis
\providecommand{\@subtitle}{}
\newcommand{\subtitle}[1]{\renewcommand{\@subtitle}{#1}}\newcommand{\SubmissionText}{\begin{center}

\newcommand{\MakeThesisTitle}[2]{\vspace{#1}\begin{center} {\LARGE\@title}\end{center}%
\ifthenelse{ \equal{}{\@subtitle}}{}{\begin{center}\@subtitle\par\end{center}}
\vspace{#2}
\begin{center}

\vspace{0.8cm}
\begin{figure*}[!h]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=4cm]{UoBbadge.eps}
\end{figure*}
\@author\par

%text for the foot of the title page will go in this sbox
\newsavebox{\submissionstatement}
