How do I convert BMP to ICO?

Upload your BMP file above. It is converted to ICO automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.

Does converting BMP to ICO lose quality?

Each icon size is scaled down from your image and stored without further compression, so small sizes stay crisp.

BMP gemmer pixels helt uden komprimering. Filerne er store, men meget gammel eller enkel software, der ikke kan læse moderne formater, kan som regel læse en BMP.

What sizes does the ICO file include?

The standard icon sizes of 16, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels, skipping any larger than your image. Browsers and Windows pick the best size automatically.

Is the BMP to ICO converter free?

Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.

Why convert BMP to ICO?

One ICO bundles the standard 16 to 256 px icon sizes (up to the size of your image), ready for a favicon.ico or a Windows shortcut.
Browsere viser ICO-filen som dit websteds fane- og bogmærkeikon, når du gemmer den som favicon.ico.

What to expect when converting BMP to ICO

Ikoner er kvadratiske, så et ikke-kvadratisk billede centreres på et gennemsigtigt kvadrat. Størrelser, der er større end dit billede, oprettes ikke, så start med mindst 256 × 256 pixels.
Din originale BMP-fil ændres ikke: du downloader en ny ICO-kopi.
