What sizes should an ICO file include?
For favicons, 16, 32 and 48 px cover browsers and Windows. Add 256 px for high-resolution Windows icons.
Can a JPG icon have a transparent background?
No — JPG has no transparency, so the icon keeps the JPG's background. Start from a PNG with transparency if you need a see-through icon.
Why should my image be square?
Icons are square. A non-square JPG is fitted into a square, which can leave empty space or squash the design — crop it to a square first for the best result.
Does the ICO work on all Windows versions?
The icon frames are PNG-encoded, which Windows Vista and later and all modern browsers support.
Is my image uploaded?
No. The .ico file is built in your browser, so nothing leaves your device.
