X-Icon Editor

X-Icon Editor is a free, browser-based tool that enables users to create high-resolution icons (favicons) directly within their web browsers. Built using HTML5 and the element, it allows for the creation of icons that enhance website branding, especially when pinned to the Windows taskbar or displayed in the browser’s new tab page.

Key Features

Multiple Image Format Support

The editor accepts various image formats, including PNG, JPG, BMP, GIF, and ICO. Users can import images in these formats to create their desired icons.

Dynamic Cropping

After importing an image, users can crop it dynamically to focus on the specific area they want to highlight in the icon. (Cropping is not supported for ICO files.)

Customizable Icon Sizes

Users can generate icons in multiple sizes: 16×16, 24×24, 32×32, and 64×64 pixels. This ensures compatibility across different platforms and devices.

Preview and Export Options

Once the icon is created, users can preview it to confirm it meets their expectations. After finalizing, the icon can be exported for use on websites or applications.
