Our logo is the [users](https://fontawesome.com/icons/users?f=classic&s=solid) icon
143+
from the Font Awesome Free icon set. ([License](https://fontawesome.com/license/free))
144+
145+
To customize and download it, we found it on [fonticon](https://gauger.io/fonticon/),
146+
set its foreground color to `#00313C` there, selected the download type of `.ico (advanced)`,
147+
then clicked the "Download" button.
148+
That opened the icon in [RealFaviconGenerator.net](https://realfavicongenerator.net/api/favicon_generator),
149+
in which we opted for a background color of `#FFFFFF`. Finally, we downloaded the resulting favicon package
150+
(i.e. ZIP file), which included:
151+
152+
- `favicon.ico`, which we use as our **favicon** (i.e. `static/img/favicon.ico`)
153+
- `safari-pinned-tab.svg`, which we renamed to `logo.svg` and use as our **logo** (i.e. `static/img/logo.svg`)
154+
- Other files, which we do not use
