Can Adobe please make the .ico file format built into Adobe Photoshop? Favicons are very popular and having to manually install the .ico file into each and every system is very tedious. Some computer labs I work at do not even let you install any software at all or grant you access to the Photoshop program's folder as it's running off the server, so Adobe can not simply say drag the file into the plugin's folder. I can do this at home, but not at any of my job locations. To do this I have to manually work off my personal laptop.
Again, please build the .ico file format into photoshop.
Thank you,
Jeff
I am little confused with the favicon.ico file format. There seems to be some Photoshop Plug-Ins and others say a PNG and renaming the .png into .ico is totally enough. Can one of the developers be more specific? I need to create a favicon.ico file for my website in several sizes.
I found this website to create a favicon.ico image format.
My question is as follows:
1.) Does the .ico file format store/include several images of different sizes (such as 16x16,32x32 and 64x64) in one file. Therefore, three different images in different sizes in one file?
2.) As far as I can see on the favicon maker website under advanced settings ... Is there any text information stored within this favicon.ico file such as website url, website title, background color, rss feed url, pixel sizes?
3.) Is there a way to create a favicon.ico file format in Photohop CC?
4.) Can I use an SVG file (no more need to create different screen sizes) ... what are the "perfect SVG settings" to create a standard favicon.ico then?
The thread is more or less about the topic, how to get an old Plug-In working ... complicated ... Adobe Muse CC only accepts png, jpg and gif image files only as far as I have noticed ... but no .ICO file.
AFAIK, saving an .ico file contains just the one size. You have to size your icon correctly, or the .ico format will not appear in the formats list. The link in post #1 has links to the .ico plugin. I can't answer your SVG question.
I have been a subscriber of the Creative Cloud Suite for over a year. I realize I am only one person but imagine I speak for many when I express my frustration for Adobe's limitations on anything other than Apple products. The most recent leading me here today is attempting to create an icon is .ico format, which should be a simple task, considering Adobe's robust capabilities and the simple fact it is the year 2016. I prefer Windows and Androids but constantly run into issues and limitations because I will not use Apple or design for Apple. Seriously? I cannot get certain apps on my Samsung tablet or phone and get emails even from Adobe promoting some new app or feature which I cannot use because I don't have Apple. I really have grown to love your products and utilize many in the CC Suite but by now, I would expect all products to be available cross-platform. If Adobe refuses to adapt to this methodology of choice and liberation, why don't they offer a discount and explain upon membership in big, bold writing, not all products will be available unless you have everything Apple. Why should I or anyone pay for all the features when you clearly have not made them available to everyone? It still amazes me I cannot design or save an icon in such a well-known format. I have tried the 3rd party plugin but cannot get it to work. Please note, however, I would still be writing this if it did work because I should not have to search and trust a 3rd party plugin when I already subscribe to an extensive suite of applications by a leader in the industry. I really hope you work to make all products and their capabilities available to all platforms in the near-future, or at least have the decency to charge less for a "Windows" cc package. This is very disappointing and has been building up over the time I've subscribed. I honestly thought by now, you would have changed this. As I said, I may only be one person but considering there must be thousands like me and future subscribers who will also become discouraged, it will add up to not only a loss of money but market share. Thank you for your time.
I tried every suggestion I found here and elsewhere and nothing worked. The Telegraphics plugin doesn't work with the most recent version of Photoshop CC, at least for me. So I saved the file as a .png and went looking on the Mac app store. Found a 99 cent plug in called Faviconer, and within seconds, I can make a .ico file out of any jpeg or png or whatever file I have. Shouldn't be so hard to get one out of Photoshop. Why this isn't built in is a mystery to me. But Faviconer is very simple, elegant, and does just what I need it to do.
where do I paste this file? Can I paste into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Plug-ins , I already did it but I cant locate it on file format tray while I am saving an icon file.
I use Photoshop CC to create my graphic for my favicon and export a 250x250 png file. I changed the file name to favicon.ico and uploaded it to my website server with Dreamweaver CC and it works fine. I have done this on more than a dozen websites I manage and it has worked on all of them. Maybe it is too simple. I used the ico add-in in previous versions of Photoshop to directly export, but this method works easier with CC.
THANK YOU!! I am feeling the EXACT same way, and plan on writing something very similar to your comment here.. I have been searching for hours trying o get a solution on saving .ico files on my windows10 PC... NOTHING! And yes, I tried the 3rd party plugin thing, didn't work... So, yeah, they most DEFINITELY should have it built in to the software already!
.ico files are the little logo's on the tab's of the websites you visit. Photoshop CS6 had the option to save as .ico, but tech support just informed me that CC has no such option. As a web developer I don't feel like I should be paying for a service that is costing me time and money to do less than the software did that I only had to pay for once.
You can also use a free website where you drag and drop a transparent PNG image into a website box and have it generate the .ico file for you to use on your website. This site is found here: https://www.convertico.com/
I made a comment for you just below. You either have to install the .ico file format plugin in your Photoshop plugins folder or go to a free website and have it convert a .png image for you.
I wish Adobe would build in support right into the app, they have never had this which is very dumb.
