JPG to ICO Conversion FAQs

What is an ICO file?

An ICO file is a specialized image file format used for computer icons in Microsoft Windows. What makes it unique is its ability to contain multiple small images at various sizes and color depths within a single file.

What is a favicon and why do I need one?

A favicon (short for 'favorite icon') is the small icon associated with a website or web page. It most commonly appears in the browser tab next to the page title. A well-designed favicon is a key part of your website's branding.

What is the best size for my source JPG image?

For the best possible results, you should start with a high-resolution, square image. A size of 256x256 pixels or 512x512 pixels is ideal.

Can I use a non-square image?

You can, but it is not recommended. The ICO format is square, so the tool will automatically squash or stretch your rectangular image to fit. It is highly recommended to crop your image to a 1:1 square ratio before uploading.

Is this JPG to ICO service free?

Yes, our tool for converting your JPG or PNG to an ICO file is completely free and without any limits or watermarks.

Do you keep a copy of my images?

No, we absolutely do not. Your privacy is a top priority. Your images are processed securely and are automatically and permanently cleared immediately after.

Can I use a PNG image to create an ICO?

Yes! Our tool accepts both JPG and PNG files. In fact, using a PNG file with a transparent background is the best way to create an icon that will look good on any background color.
