About ICO

Windows Icon

The Windows icon format, which packs several sizes of the same image, such as 16x16 and 32x32 pixels, into one file. Each size is stored as a bitmap or a PNG. Convert to ICO to make a favicon or a Windows application icon.

About GIF

Graphics Interchange Format

CompuServe's 1987 format, limited to a palette of 256 colors per frame and compressed losslessly with LZW. It supports simple animation and on-or-off transparency. Use it for short looping animations where broad support matters more than color depth.
