Icon Maker lets you create and edit icons, cursors, and animated cursors with standard editing tools and effects. It also allows importing icons from files and images and exporting them in customizable sizes and color depths.

One of the standout features of Icon Maker is its ability to work with various color depths, such as 2, 16, 256 and true color. You can also create an icon with preset sizes of 16, 24, 32, 48, and 64, or set your own custom size. Additionally, you can use a dynamic transparent color for your icons, create cursors with free hotspots, and even view animated cursors.
On top of that, Icon Maker allows you to extract an icon from any file or folder, paste any image from the clipboard, select regions for import from bmp, jpg, gif, or wmf files greater than 64x64 pixels, associate ICO files with the program, and support a multi-language interface. You can also enjoy unlimited undo and redo steps, as well as store the most recent 5 files opened before.
Another great option for icon and cursor manipulation is Free Icon Editor. This program is like the Swiss Army Knife of image editing, with features that allow you to manage icons on your system, apply effects, filters, rotation, and cropping, and use a huge color palette. You can use this easy-to-use editor to create and edit ICO, ANI, CUR, GIF, JPEG, WMF, EMF, TGA, and WBMP files, and apply image filters such as blurring, sharpening, embossing, and color balance.
Free Icon Editor also offers a variety of image effects, including linear gradient, radial gradient, rectangular gradient, WAV, 3D shadow, 3D button, text gradient effects, noise, and arbitrary rotation. You can create and edit icons in either standard or custom sizes, in color depths up to 16 million colors, and standard icon sizes of 16x16, 32x32, and 48x48 pixels.
In conclusion, whether you choose Icon Maker or Free Icon Editor, you’ll have a suite of tools and effects at your disposal for all your icon and cursor creation and editing needs. With drag and drop functionality, you can quickly and easily edit your files, and both programs offer a great user experience with intuitive interfaces.
