For modern websites, include 16x16, 32x32, and 64x64 sizes. The 16x16 is used in browser tabs, 32x32 for high-DPI displays, and 64x64 for Safari's pinned tabs. Including multiple sizes ensures your favicon looks crisp on all devices.
Yes! ICO format supports transparency. If your PNG has a transparent background, the transparency will be preserved in the ICO file, allowing your icon to blend seamlessly with any background.
You can upload PNG files up to 50MB. For optimal results, we recommend using images that are appropriate for icon creation (square aspect ratio works best).
