If the image is still in a vector format, and if you can give us a link to 
the SVG file, we can tell you specifically how to do it.

Covering it up with another object can come back to haunt you later, 
sometimes, depending on what might need to do with it in the future.

If the image is no longer vector, you will probably need to use a raster 
editor (such as GIMP) to remove it.

All best,

Subject: [Inkscape-user] erase

I have a logo that I created in 2010 when I was confortable using inkscape. 
I have not used it for a while but would like to delete the date on it and 
keep the rest. A lovely user of this forum did it for me once but do you 
think I can find the file ? of course not, lol.

Is there any way I can just use a shape, circle perhaps, in white and lay it 
over the date so it will not show ? I could then save it as a jpg rather 
than a png and use it.

thanks for any advice,
Joanne
