Image To Icon Convertor

Efiresoft Image to Icon Converter is a simple-to-use Windows application with a name that basically sums up its purpose: it can turn common images into icons, thus allowing you to personalize shortcuts to programs, files and folders.

The utility offers support for BMP, JPG, PNG, GIF and ICO files. Its standard features are intuitive enough to be learned with ease by novices.

The setup procedure is rapid and does not require special attention from the user. Its interface is not particularly attractive but fairly simple to work with.

Images can be added to the main frame for conversion using the drag-and-drop function. Batch processing is not supported, meaning that you cannot work with multiple pictures at once to decrease overall task duration.

In matter of output icon settings, you can select the size (original, preset value or custom) and color (solid or transparent). Clicking a button pops up a file browser that you can use to point out the saving directory and file name.

Conversion jobs are carried out immediately, while CPU and RAM usage is minimal. We have not come across any kind of issues throughout our evaluation, since the tool did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs.

Icons can be configured so that they have several sizes, from 16×16 (the classic favicons that are shown beside the browser address) to a maximum of 256×256, an enormous size that can be made the most of with high definition screens.

The transformation of an image into an icon is almost instant and before converting it, Image 2 Icon Converter allows us to open it to know exactly what colors form part of it (and thus know if it will transcode properly to ICO format, or configure the background color and transparency).Easy PNG to Icon Converter is a free tool designed for fast converting PNG images to Icons.The program allows you to set up the width and height of your icons, you can choose from various formats such as Monochrome, RGBA or RGB and the transparency level.
