How to replace Navigation text with an Image

I want to set up a new page on my website called "Freeze Peach" but instead of just typing it into the Navigation bar like usual, I'd like to use a .png of the logo that my friend is designing. They don't have the logo designed yet, so I just created the page as "Coming Soon!" for now.

I tried uploading a file in Custom CSS to see if that would work, but sadly it didn't. And I'm not very experienced in css.

Let me know if there's another way!

Thanks

I think you still need to add the page to nav bar and restyle the nav item with css, could I check the image you got?

Right! I've added the page to the nav bar and now need a little guidance on restyling. 😅

And the image is attached below.

.Header-nav-item[href*=coming-soon],
.Mobile-overlay-nav-item[href*=coming-soon] {
  position: relative;
  color: transparent !important;
}
.Header-nav-item[href*=coming-soon]:after,
.Mobile-overlay-nav-item[href*=coming-soon]:after {
    content: '';
    background: url(https://content.invisioncic.com/p289038/monthly_2020_11/FreezePeach-ComingSoon.png.ce50920572f09ddd418a10fcdc065c88.png) no-repeat;
    background-size: cover;
    position: absolute;    
    width: 200px;
    height: 120%;    
}
.Mobile-overlay-nav-item[href*=coming-soon]:after {

Add this CSS

a.Header-nav-item[href*="forfunfoods"] {
    background-image: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c5aed7b840b160c0a36ad9a/t/6255df2b4ea0b25916fa73dc/1649794859649/FF_Logotype_Web.png);
    color: transparent !important;
    background-size: contain;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center center;
}

If you want to change to svg, just replace url in the code with svg file url

@tuanphan I replicated this as well, and it works on homepage, but once link is active, the png disappears in the header and nothing shows. Any ideas why?

add !important after the code

a.Header-nav-item[href*="forfunfoods"] {
    background-image: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5c5aed7b840b160c0a36ad9a/t/6255df2b4ea0b25916fa73dc/1649794859649/FF_Logotype_Web.png) !important;
    color: transparent !important;
    background-size: contain;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center center;
}
