Image to favicon workflow
Turn a source image into a dependable favicon.ico
The general converter accepts the most common raster and vector image formats, then creates one ICO file for every selected resolution.
Choose the right source
Use PNG or SVG for logos and transparent artwork. JPG works for photographic sources, while WebP, BMP and GIF are useful when that is the original asset you already have.
Prepare a square composition
Place the main symbol in the center with enough breathing room. A square source prevents unexpected stretching across different embedded icon sizes.
Verify several resolutions
Inspect both the 16×16 preview and larger sizes. The smallest version should remain recognizable without relying on thin lines or tiny text.
Format-specific help
Image to ICO questions
Which source format is best for a favicon?
PNG and SVG are usually best for logos because they support clean edges, and PNG can preserve transparency. JPG is suitable when the favicon is based on a photograph.
How are multiple ICO sizes downloaded?
Each selected size is generated as its own ICO file. You can download files separately or download all selected sizes together in one ZIP archive.
Is the image sent to a server?
No. Conversion is performed locally in the browser and the source file is not uploaded.
