Edit icon images in Windows or FAVICON.ICO files for web pagesIconEdit is a Java 1.4 graphical (GUI) application to edit icon files (*.ICO) for Windows.

An icon file can contain more than one image, in more than one size. Supported sizes are from 8×8 to 255×255 pixels, with standard sizes of 16×16, 24×24, 32×32, 48×48, and 64×64 pixels. All icons are square.

Colors may be 4-bit (16 colors), 8-bit (256 colors), or 24-bit (millions). For 4- bit color, only the standard Windows color palette is used, although other palettes will be read and converted.

For 8-bit color, only the standard 216 "web safe" colors are used. Other palettes will be read and converted.

There are no restrictions on 24-bit colors; all RGB (red-green-blue) values are accepted.

As an alternative to having a solid color ("opaque"), pixels may be transparent and let the background show through. Most icons use the "web safe" colors in 16×16 or 32×32 sizes.

With IconEdit you will be able to easily modify the icons and make them exactly as you would like them to be.
