Using your .ico as a favicon

For the cleanest result, start from a square PNG (for example 256×256 or 512×512) so the icon isn’t stretched. The converter outputs an ICO sized for favicon use (up to 256 px). Upload the file to your site’s root folder and reference it as favicon.ico, or on WordPress set it under Appearance → Customize → Site Identity → Site Icon. Transparency is preserved, so a transparent logo stays transparent in the tab.

PNG vs ICO: what's the difference?

PNG is a general-purpose lossless image with transparency great for photos, logos and graphics. ICO is a Windows icon container that browsers still request as favicon.ico, and it’s also used for desktop and application icons. Converting PNG to ICO doesn’t change your artwork; it packages it into the icon format that websites and Windows expect, so your logo shows up correctly in the browser tab.

Why convert PNG to ICO?

Every website needs a favicon, and most logos start life as a PNG so PNG to ICO is the missing step. Use it to add a favicon to a website or blog, replace the default browser-tab logo, create a Windows shortcut or app icon, or prepare an icon for a desktop program. With batch mode you can generate icons for several projects at once and download them together.
