How to create a favicon

Client

To create a favicon you need square PNG at the right pixels—not CSS scaling in the tab. Upload below, export 32×32, 180×180, or 512×512, then wire link tags or your CMS field.

We read width and height locally, then resize with center crop. Max 8 MB.

HTML link tags

Set the folder where PNGs will live (site root is /). Copy tags into your document <head>.

Current export (32×32)

<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon-32x32.png">

Full favicon block

<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="16x16" href="/favicon-16x16.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="32x32" href="/favicon-32x32.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="48x48" href="/favicon-48x48.png">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" type="image/png" sizes="180x180" href="/apple-touch-icon.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="192x192" href="/icon-192x192.png">
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="512x512" href="/icon-512x512.png">

Export size

?

Choose the pixel size your HTML link, manifest, or platform expects. Preview shows how center crop will look at that size.

Common use cases

  • Create favicon PNG before deploy or CMS upload.
  • Confirm create favicon requirements before updating HTML link tags or a CMS upload field.
  • Export a square PNG locally after upload—no server processing of your logo.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Using a non-square logo without padding

    Center crop helps but cannot fix edge-to-edge text. Add margin before export.

  • Changing filenames without updating href paths in HTML.
