Favicon Generator: Prepare Your Site Icon
If you need a small icon that appears across your blog, this tool runs entirely in your browser. Upload your logo and prepare sizes for a 16x16 favicon, a 32x32 tab icon, and a 180x180 touch icon in one pass. Your files never leave your device. Leave padding around non-square logos. Fine text disappears at tiny sizes, so an initial works better.
Step by step
- Prepare a near-square, simple logo file; use an initial instead of a long wordmark.
- Upload the file and inspect the 16x16 and 32x32 previews.
- Adjust padding if needed, then download the sizes.
- Upload the files to your site root and reference them in the page head.
- Open the site in a private window and confirm the icon updates.
Example scenario
Elif runs a personal blog and uploaded her square logo. She noticed the wordmark turned unreadable at 32x32 pixels, so she made a simpler initial version. After adding the files to her site root, the initial stayed sharp at the smallest size on desktop and phone.
Check your result
Open your files in several places before publishing. Compare dark and light browser themes. If edges look blurry, rebuild from a simpler source. Cached pages may show the old icon; verify in a private window.
Frequently asked questions
Which sizes should I download?
A 16x16 tab icon, 32x32 icon, and 180x180 touch icon cover most cases.
What if my logo is not square?
Wide logos can look squeezed. A square version with an initial stays sharper.
Are my files uploaded?
No, everything runs in your browser.
Will the icon look identical everywhere?
No, browsers resize icons. Small differences are normal.
