Online fav-icon creator
Published by Vlasta on November 4th 2006.
Fav-icon is an icon displayed by internet browser in favorites an in address bar. Our online favicon maker got a couple of new features and a slick new look and feel. Visitors can create their own fav-icons from pictures and modify them using pencil tool or by drawing lines.
Windows XP look and feel
Despite being a web-based application running in internet browser (and partially on the web server), the interface now looks and behaves just like an ordinary Windows XP program. This should make it easier for people to work with the tool, because they know how to use toolbar buttons or draw lines in an image editor.
Creating icons from pictures
Users can upload a .jpg or a .png image (without aplha channel) and it will be automatically rescaled and loaded into the editor. Tt may be then further modified and finally saved in Windows icon format.
Supported colors format
The created icon uses 8 bits per pixel and it is suitable for usage on all Windows versions. Since the favicon is small (just 16Г—16 pixel), the 8-bit color depth allows using any of the standard 16M colors. Users can either quickly choose color by clicking on a the palette or they can use a custom color specified by hexadecimal RGB html-compatible number.Try it right now
The editor is rw-designer.com/online_icon_maker.php.
And here are instructions how to apply a favicon to a web page, if you need them.Another online favicon generators worth looking at:
converticon.com/ - a simple png <-> ico converter.
favicon.ru/en/ - lots of features, but hard to control.
