So I am trying to bring in images that I drew in Illustrator and saved as SVG files. However, when I bring them over the fill color has become black even though I have saved it with no fill. Please explain!

Please read TIP 7 in the following thread and use the save settings shown in the illustrator CC screenshot in TIP 7:
