Advanced GIF to ICO Converter

GIF is a bitmap image format that supports animation and transparency, commonly used for simple graphics on the web. ICO is a special image format used primarily for icons in Windows applications and website favicons. ICO files can contain multiple sizes of the same image and can also support transparency.

Yes! Our converter supports creating animated ICO files from animated GIFs. When converting, simply select “All frames” in the frame selection option to preserve the animation. Note that not all applications support animated ICO files, but they work perfectly for Windows application icons.

Our converter can handle very large GIF files since all processing happens in your browser. However, extremely large files (over 50MB) might cause performance issues depending on your device’s capabilities. For best results, we recommend converting GIFs under 10MB.

Yes, our converter fully supports transparency. Any transparent areas in your original GIF will remain transparent in the converted ICO file. This is particularly useful when creating favicons or application icons where you want the background to show through.

No, all converted ICO files are completely free of watermarks. You retain full ownership of your converted files, and there are no restrictions on how you can use them. Our service is completely free with no hidden limitations.
