From this SVG file, PNG files of different sizes can be created. It is important that the background of the token be transparent.

the token files - ImageMagick
Any adequate tool can be used to prepare the token image files. One extraordinary command-line tool to process these files is ImageMagick.
...
ImageMagic can be used to convert the white background of token raster image to transparent:
Code Block |
---|
convert test_bigtoken.png -transparent "#ffffff" token_transparent.png |
Sizing
To resize the PNG file called test_big.png to 32x32 pixels, into a file called test_32x32.png:
Code Block |
---|
magick testtoken_big.png -resize 32x32 testtoken_32x32.png |
Both commands (transparency and resizing) can be combined into one command:
Code Block |
---|
magick convert -transparent "#ffffff" testtoken_big.png -resize 32x32 testtoken_32x32.png |
Juxtaposing the token image on the bottle image
To combine the token image (at 512x512) with the bottle image (1024px high), and set a 1024x1024 transparent background:
Code Block |
---|
convert -size 1024x1024 xc:transparent MTB_bottle.png -geometry +750+0 -composite MTB27_512x512.png -geometry + |
...
380+500 |
...
-composite MTB27_bottle.png |
Adding the token address as metadata to the token image
And finally…why not write the Ethereum contract address for the token into the image files as metadata!
Code Block |

MTBMBP:tokens mbarrow$ magick MTB21.png -set comment '0x69d3Af30c63F5bd916bBcD79b58dBc8BD16D0308' bottle2.png
MTBMBP:tokens mbarrow$ identify -format %c MTB21.png
