Software product icons

A software product icon is a starting point for users checking out your program. It must correspond to the purpose of your program, be easily recognizable among other icons and give positive user perception .

We design icons in accordance with Microsoft's guidance on icon creation: Creating Windows XP Icons
Windows XP-style icons are made in accordance with the following requirements:
Full-color palette
Visual angle and perspective
Smoothing object corners and edges
Fixed location of the light source and general scene ambient lighting
Gradient fill
Object shadows to increase contrast and image volume
Clear object outlines
Contemporary look of everyday objects such as computers and household articles

Icon sizes and colors
We create icons in three standard sizes:
48x48 pixels
32x32 pixels
16x16 pixels
Each icon is made in three color modes:
32bit (24bit + 8bit for alpha channel). Used in Windows XP.
8bit (256 colors + 1bit for transparency)
4bit (16 colors + 1bit for transparency)

As a result, the .ico file contains 9 icons:
48x48 32bit
32x32 32bit
16x16 32bit
48x48 256 colors
32x32 256 colors
16x16 256 colors
48x48 16 colors
32x32 16 colors
16x16 16 colors
