Wix Burn - custom template

Is there a way to change that redish CD picture in the installer?

Wix bundle app

Here's the code of the Burn project:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"
     xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension"
     xmlns:bal="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/BalExtension">
    <Bundle Name="Bootstrapper" Version="1.0.0.0" Manufacturer="VilmosNagy" UpgradeCode="844c755f-f02b-4dd3-8b9c-af2498f3128c">
        <BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" />

    <Chain>
      <MsiPackage SourceFile="..\Setup\bin\Release\Setup.msi" />
    </Chain>
    </Bundle>
</Wix>

Thanks!

Yes, you can use a custom theme. Here is an example from https://github.com/frederiksen/Classic-WiX-Burn-Theme:

To clarify Rick Bowerman's answer above, you need to use the extended XML schema in order to use WixStandardBootstrapperApplication and remove/replace the icon. Here is a more elaborate example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi" xmlns:bal="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/BalExtension">
...
    <BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.HyperlinkLicense">
      <bal:WixStandardBootstrapperApplication LicenseUrl="" LogoFile="blank.png" />
    </BootstrapperApplicationRef>
    <Chain>
        <MsiPackage SourceFile="$(var.Msi_x86)" />
        <MsiPackage InstallCondition='VersionNT64' SourceFile="$(var.Msi_x64)" />
    </Chain>
...
</Wix>

Note that you have to specify something for the LogoFile attribute. It cannot be empty, and leaving the attribute out will restore the horror.

Yes, you will want to set the LogoFile. Inside of BootstrapperApplicationRef add

<WixStandardBootstrapperApplication LogoFile="path to your logo.bmp"/>
