As far as I can tell, pkgdown does not currently provide a proper way to control the placement of a hexsticker. Instead, it ends up squeezed into the index page almost as an afterthought, as illustrated below.
It would be nice to have a dedicated configuration option in _pkgdown.yml to control its placement. One suggestion would be to position the hexsticker above the sidebar, giving it a more prominent and consistent place in the page layout, as shown below. This would also make it easier to integrate the hexsticker into the overall site design.

A quick fix is to add a logo section to your
_pkgdown.ymllike this:This will add the logo to the sidebar on the right. The title is mandatory and pkgdown automatically creates a class (
hex-sticker) out of it.If your image is too big and to remove the logo title, you add this bit of css to
pkgdown/extra.css.
