Why Convert GIF to ICON file?

ICON refers to the icon image format used for application and system icons, designed to display cleanly at small sizes. Converting GIF to ICON turns your image into an icon, useful for a desktop shortcut, an application, or a small symbol where an ordinary image will not do.

Icons look best from a clean, roughly square graphic, since they display at small sizes, and an icon file can hold several sizes for crisp results. If your GIF is a simple logo or symbol, converting to an icon makes it ready to use. Note that an animated GIF becomes a single still icon. For ordinary images, a standard format remains the right choice for everyday use.
