Icon image formats.

### Values

Name | Description
--- | ---
Ico | .ico (icon) format. This contains multiple image sizes and color depths.
Png | .png (portable network graphics) format. This contains a single image size and color depth, and uses lossless compression to save space.
Bmp | .bmp (bitmap) format. This contains a single image size and color depth, and does not use compression.
Gif | .gif (graphics interchange) format. This contains a single image size and color depth, and uses lossless compression to save space. This format is limited to a maximum of 8 bits-per-pixel color depth. Usually, .png is a superior choice but .gif is provided for legacy platforms that can't use the .png format.
Jpg | .jpg (JPEG) format. This contains a single image size and color depth, and uses lossy compression to save space. This format is primarily used with only larger image sizes (256x256 or larger).
