Favicon and its brethren

Post date: May 30, 2013

EDIT: I stumbled upon this wonderful repo the other day. It renders this entire blog post obsolete.

The favicon has come along way since its humble 16 × 16 px beginnings. Screen resolutions are skyrocketing and visual representations of websites are needed in different applications on different devices. This post is intended to be a collection of many image sizes that can (should?) be included on modern websites.
