Update: there is no longer any need to use a console utility. I wrote a small Visual Studio extension that you can download here.
Generating your logos is now even easier:
Right-click Package.appxmanifest.
Click “Generate logos”.
Thank you. Toss net For having the idea of adding in.
The rest of the article is therefore outdated.

Every WindowsPhone/Windows 8 developer has had to scratch their hair to see how many different logo sizes they have to create to be able to publish their apps on the store.
So to make it easier for me, I created a little utility to generate all the rectangular logos from a high-resolution source image.
How to Use the Program
It's a very simple console program.
Two commands to use the program:
-wp path from FileSource
or
-win8 path from FileSource
It creates all 16 files with the default names used in Visual Studio.
Watch out for BadgeLogo images All non-white pixels are automatically translated into transparent, thus generating a valid BadgeLogo for the store.
Or download it?
Original illustration unavailable: It's called WindowAssetResizer.
Bonus
The source images for the logos may be of a different format than png.
Go to your apps!
