Tips & Best Practices

1
Crop your JPG to a 1:1 square aspect ratio before converting to avoid distorted icons.
2
Since JPGs don't support transparency, your icon will be a solid square. If you want a shaped icon, remove the background and use the PNG to ICO tool.
3
Use larger sizes like 64x64 or 128x128 if you are creating icons for a Windows desktop application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the icon have a transparent background?

No, because the source JPG does not have transparency. The icon will be a solid square block.

Can I use this for my website favicon?

Yes, you can, but PNG to ICO is generally preferred for favicons because it allows the icon to blend with browser tabs via transparency.

Why does the icon look blurry?

If you started with a highly detailed photo and shrunk it to 16x16 pixels, the details will be lost, resulting in a blurry appearance.

Where can I use ICO files?

ICO files are primarily used for website favicons and as application shortcuts on the Microsoft Windows operating system.
