About Image Quality Settings

The quality slider controls how your image is processed during conversion to ICO format. Different settings affect various image formats differently:

Impact by Format

• JPG/JPEG: Directly affects compression level, detail preservation, and artifact reduction.
• PNG: Influences color handling, transparency quality, and edge sharpness when scaled.
• WEBP: Controls compression ratio, detail preservation, and transparency handling.
• GIF: Affects color quantization and dithering when converting to ICO format.

Recommended Settings

• High (90-100%): Best for logos with fine details, text, or sharp edges.
• Standard (75-89%): Good balance of quality and file size for most images.
• Low (60-74%): Prioritizes smaller file size, suitable for simple graphics.

Note: For website favicons, file size impacts load time, while quality affects how recognizable your icon appears in browser tabs and bookmarks.

Supported Image Formats

• PNG: Best for logos and graphics with transparency.
• JPG/JPEG: Ideal for photographic images and detailed pictures.
• GIF: Good for simple graphics with limited colors (note: animation will not be preserved in favicon).
• WEBP: Modern format with good compression, supports transparency and high quality.
