alta panel filter - which way is up?

All of the air filter how-tos I could find are suffering "link rot" and have pictures that are no longer there.

I just installed an Alta panel filter in my Cooper, and I'm not sure I put the filter in right side up. It seemed to fit best (only?) when the Alta logo was on the bottom - the filter sat down in the lower part of the airbox. There didn't seem to be enough room in the lid part of the airbox to install the filter with the Alta logo up.

Which way is it supposed to go?

The answer from Alta tech support:

Thanks for asking. The logo goes down. Sorry for any confusion!
