Why Convert JPG to ICO?

JPG (or JPEG) is a widely used format for photographic images due to its excellent compression. ICO is the standard format for icons used in Microsoft Windows applications, websites (as favicons), and shortcuts. Converting a JPG to ICO allows you to use your image as an icon.

Since ICO files typically contain multiple sizes of the same icon (e.g., 16x16, 32x32, 48x48 pixels) to ensure proper display at different resolutions and contexts, our converter usually packages these different sizes into a single .zip archive for download.

Benefits of Converting JPG to ICO

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the output a ZIP file?

ICO files often contain multiple image sizes (e.g., 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256) within a single file. To provide the most flexibility and ensure all standard sizes are generated from your source JPG, we package the resulting ICO file(s) into a ZIP archive for easy download and extraction.
