You can find it on > http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=2223 I thought that .ico files were (more or less) BMPs with size limitations (16x16, 32x32, etc), in which case you could save your file with the extension .ico selecting the type to be BMP. Just checking that works... Yup. Works fine. You can't get transparency though - the bmp plug-in doesn't support it.

There is a plug-in for gimp-1.2 called winicon which can load/save MS Windows .ico files. You can find it on http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=2223 Alternative you can use a .png file - or even an animated .mng file.

Re: [Gimp-user] favicon
There are plenty of tutorials about this on the internet. One such is http://www.winterdrache.de/freeware/png2ico/index.html This describes how to turn a png image into a windows icon file, on Windows, Linux or FreeBSD.
