    About the formats

    .gif

    GIF is an old image format limited to 256 colours per frame. It survives because it plays short animations everywhere, from chat apps to email, without needing a video player.

    .ico

    ICO is the icon format used by Windows and by website favicons. One file can hold several sizes of the same icon, up to 256 × 256 pixels.
