Worked example
A concrete favicon generator example
- Input
- A 1024 × 1024 transparent PNG containing a simple brand mark.
- Settings
- Keep transparent background enabled.
- Result
- A ZIP with 16, 32, 48, 180, 192, and 512 px PNGs, a PNG-backed 32 px favicon.ico, and site.webmanifest.
What to expect
How it works
For every target square, the source is scaled with a contain fit so its proportions remain intact. Sizes from 48 px upward receive roughly 6% inset padding. The 32 px PNG is wrapped in an ICO container, while the manifest references the generated 192 px and 512 px files from root-relative paths.
Know before using
Limits and edge cases
- The ICO contains one 32 px image rather than a multi-resolution icon, and the starter manifest still needs its name, paths, theme settings, and installation behavior reviewed for the real site.
- Automatic scaling cannot make intricate artwork readable at 16 px; simplify the source mark and inspect the smallest files before publishing them.
