Frequently asked questions

Which size do I get?

An ICO file can hold several sizes. The browser decodes the largest one it finds, and that becomes the PNG.

Is transparency kept?

Yes. Transparent areas of the icon stay transparent in the PNG.

Can I make the PNG bigger?

You can resize it afterwards with the image resizer, but a 16 or 32 px icon will look soft when enlarged. Look for a larger source if you need a big logo.

Can I go back from PNG to ICO?

Yes. Use the PNG to ICO converter to build a multi-size icon again.

Is it private?

Yes. The icons are converted in your browser.
