+## How to regenerate
+
+If you change the source master, regenerate everything from a single command:
+
+```bash
+SRC=cac3-master-1024.png
+for s in 16 32 48 96 192 512 1024; do
+  convert "$SRC" -resize ${s}x${s} cac3-${s}.png
+done
+convert cac3-16.png cac3-32.png cac3-48.png cac3-96.png favicon.ico
+convert "$SRC" -resize 180x180 apple-touch-icon.png
+convert "$SRC" -resize 152x152 apple-touch-icon-ipad.png
+convert "$SRC" -resize 432x432 android-foreground.png
+convert "$SRC" -resize 1500x1500 cac3-app-store.png
+```
+
+(ImageMagick 7+. For IM6 substitute `magick` for `convert`.)
+
