I don't understand the purpose of adding the ~ sign in such a case.
Just save the file name only (without any additional path/sign. Then after reading it from a DB create the full path name using your saved somewhere else the path to the folder where you load the file from DB...

I'm guessing it's for website root path familiarity.

At any rate, you're right, it doesn't add anything.

@OP, just retrieve the path from the database and see if it exists, if it doesn't assume it's a relative path (i.e., ~), and use the root path of where the logos are stored to form the complete path as Victor suggested.
