Favicon mood styling.

Warm favicons (orange, sepia) feel approachable; cool ones (blue, teal) feel trustworthy. The tab icon repeats the brand's personality in miniature.

Match the site: warm and inviting for a shop, cool and sober for finance, bold and distinct for a creative studio.

Cool, desaturated tones: slate or ocean. They read as competence and reliability, which B2B and consulting sites want.

Warm tones: sunset, sepia, rose. They read as welcoming, which suits community sites and personal brands.

A basic shape in a distinctive tone is more memorable than the same shape in grey, without a redesign.

Yes, with clear, bold tones: subtle differences vanish at 16 pixels.

Each pixel is read as hue, saturation and lightness; the tone's hue and saturation replace the pixel's and its lightness stays. Shading and highlights stay, so the icon keeps its shape and only its color changes.

Pick a preset (Sepia, Ocean, Violet, Teal, Sunset, Forest, Rose, Slate) or type any hex. The same hex gives the same result on every icon, which is how a set stays consistent.

The largest frame of the ICO is toned and the result is a PNG. Modern browsers take a PNG favicon as it is; for a favicon.ico or a Windows icon, pack it with the PNG to ICO tool.

No. The ICO is read and its frames decoded by JavaScript on your device; the page makes no request with your file. Load it, go offline and it still works.

No. The "Favicon mood styling" tool is free and opens without a sign-in, an account or an install.

Nothing. The "Favicon mood styling" tool holds your input in the page's memory, so closing or reloading the tab clears it, and it saves nothing in this browser.

Up to 100 MB per file, the limit the tool states under its drop area. A larger file is refused with a plain message instead of being decoded.

No, it takes one file at a time. If you drop or choose several, only the first is used; run the tool again for the next one.

The edit is written as a PNG because PNG stores every pixel exactly, with a full alpha channel, so the result can be edited again without a second round of loss.

No. The browser decodes the image and the tool writes a new file from its pixels, so camera EXIF, GPS position and text chunks in the original are not copied into the result. Keep the original file if you need them.

No. The result has the same width and height in pixels as the source.
