i want to import some graphics ( svg) files. so they can be silkscreened in white on my board.
is this possible?
if so, will fritzing adjust the silkscreen layer, if the image is llaced over pads? or do i need to plan for that in adobe ilkustrator before i import the graphic into fritzi g?
ive made a few boards, but never messed woth adding silkscreen images. so any info would be helpful. tjanks guys.
Yes
drag the image part in to the sketch then set the file from Inspector.
Yes (although to be sure check the gerber output with a gerber viewer.)

While I’m not entirely sure, he wants the silkscreen to be in white. Not sure if possible.
As well I’ve a question for @eross21: What colour do you want your board to be in?
And a question for @vanepp: Will the fabricated board be white by default?
Yes although with elcrow you can select your silkscreen color on order but I think the default is white.

oh wow it’s that easy? well i know what im doing this weekend. thanks so much !!
yes i want white silkscreen. but not a big deal. im making the boards all at home anyway. so i’ll just use white ink when i silkscreen 
so i am able to import. but the image is way smaller than its actual size. is there something in fritzing i need to check, so it imports at actual size?
Not for me. The svg appears full size when loaded.
This is the svg (right click on it and select save image as to download it)
You may need to set the viewbox correctly though. You can upload your svg and I will take a look at it and correct it as needed if you like.

here is my svg
Ah! You have committed the cardinal sin 
. Your svg is dimensioned in px rather than inches or mm (both real world values.) Fritzing will guess between 72DPI (Illustrator) and 90DPI (older Inkscape, current Inkscape that I am running is 96DPI and thus may render this even more miss scaled.) If you are on Illustrator you may have a problem as I don’t know of a way (in early Illustrators there apparently isn’t one, so the solution is to import the svg in to parts editor then save the part and Fritizng will do the conversion from 72DPI to inches when it writes the svg although that is a PITA.) If you are using Inkscape, just change the document properties window from px to in the set the real world size of the image that you want (you may need to scale it up or down to get that.) Then save it as a plain svg and all should be well.
Your svg dimensioned in px: (with an additional problem of height and width set to %100 rather than real world units, I don’t know what Fritzing will do with that …)
Here is my svg, which is dimensioned in inches (which don’t change with DPI values) The viewbox shouldn’t matter any scale should work (this one happens to be at the Fritzing standard of i drawing unit = 1mil.)
and height and width are in inches.
