How to Use This Thing
Look, we get it. You've got 47 Chrome tabs open about different image sizes for different platforms, your designer friend isn't returning your calls anymore, and you just want to ship your MVP before someone else builds the same thing. We've been there.
The Four-Step Plan
- 1.Type in your project name (we'll make some initials because every tech startup needs a two-letter logo)
- 2.Add your tagline (try to avoid "AI-powered" or "blockchain-based" - we all know what year it is)
- 3.Pick some colors that aren't blue (but probably end up with blue anyway because it "feels more trustworthy")
- 4.Click the big button and get every possible asset size known to mankind
Copy-Paste This Stuff
Here's the HTML you'll need. Yes, you could figure it out yourself, but why waste the brain cycles?
<!-- The basics -->
<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="favicon.png" />
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="apple-touch-icon.png" />
<!-- For when you share your MVP on Twitter and LinkedIn -->
<meta property="og:image" content="https://yourdomain.com/og-image.png" />
<meta property="twitter:image" content="https://yourdomain.com/twitter-card.png" />
<!-- For that professional email signature you'll never use -->
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<img src="email-logo.png" alt="Company Logo" style="width: 200px" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- PWA manifest because you're definitely going to make it installable -->
{
"icons": [
{
"src": "pwa-icon-192.png",
"sizes": "192x192",
"type": "image/png"
},
{
"src": "pwa-icon-512.png",
"sizes": "512x512",
"type": "image/png"
}
]
}
Pro Tips
- Use PNG format because it's 2025 and storage is cheap
- Keep your tagline short - nobody reads those anyway
- Generate new assets whenever you pivot your business model (so, like, weekly?)
- These won't win any design awards, but they'll get you through the MVP phase
- When you finally get funding, please hire a real designer (and apologize to the one you ghosted)
Reality Check: These assets are perfect for your development phase, early user testing, or that pitch deck you're putting together at 3 AM. But if you actually start making money, do yourself a favor and invest in proper branding. Until then, we've got your back with these "good enough" assets.
