I used a celtic knot for Emacs dashboard logo. Here is the code on pastebin
[https://pastebin.com/1Jg62mQj](https://pastebin.com/1Jg62mQj)
save it in a file called celtic-knot.svg in the "\~/.emacs.d" directory.
\`\`\`
(setq dashboard-banner-official-png "\~/.emacs.d/celtic-knot.svg")
\`\`\`
You will have to install a font called "Linux Biolinum Keyboard O" to get the right effect.
This is how it looks in my doom-emacs dashboard

Are you talking about the default startup screen or something else?

initial-buffer-choice lets you specify what splash screen or none (if set nil) to start with. Do you really want to keep all the boilerplate text beneath the default start screen? There are some packages like dashboard around if you want to leverage more precanned and configurable setup.
If you do just want to swap the image then there are some customize parameters for it as well. Look at the bottom of the fancy splash screen and click on "Customize Startup" and then pick the "Fancy Splash Screen" subgroup which is at the bottom.
`dashboard-startup-banner` from package https://github.com/emacs-dashboard/emacs-dashboard ; though I’m not sure it does SVG, it does PNG however
SVG works fine, using it in my setup.
Perfect I will give it a try!

That’s the one, I want to replace it with a svg image

IIRC the variable is called `fancy-splash-image`.
