      I'm having a hard time getting my SVG that I made in Inkscape to render properly in ES.

      some elements show some do not.

      here's what it looks like in inkscape (that's an export)

      the only thing that shows up is the three bars on the sides

      Ive tried saving it as an Inkscape svg and a plain svg. no love.

      How do I fix it

          Are you using using the latest version of Emulation Station ? Previous versions had issues with SVG compatibility so it is recommended you update your setup script and install latest emulationstation from source.
          I also use to group all objects and resize the page to objects in Inkscape before saving SVGs for ES.
          More info on SVG compatibility and a custom logo pack here

            Anyone working in Adobe Illustrator to make SVG logos? If so, what settings are you using to export/ save with?

            I've made a few SVG that can render a preview, but show up without the color layers, then the extreme opposite of the SVG saving with color as intended but corrupting when trying to reopen in Ai. Any thoughts?

              Nevermind, I played around with different export settings and found one that ES likes and also renders an image in browser.
