About ICC Images

ICC Images is a browser-based image and logo editor. It recolours marks, removes backgrounds, resizes for every platform that asks for a different shape, and converts between the file formats other people keep requesting — without a subscription and without a design application to install. It is used by 16,000+ marketers, founders and small businesses.

Why it exists

It started from a narrow, repetitive problem: producing the colour variants of a logo. A white version for a dark header, a black version for one-ink print, a transparent PNG at three sizes. None of it is difficult, all of it is tedious, and the usual answer is to open a full design application and spend twenty minutes on a task that should take thirty seconds.

It grew from there, and grew deliberately. The favicon question leads to the app-icon question, which leads to the social crop, the watermark, the one-ink print version and the link-preview card. They are all the same kind of job, they all arrive at the same person, and having to solve each one somewhere different is most of what makes them a chore. So the tools are all here and grouped by what you’re making rather than by technique — not so the list can be long, but so nothing on yours is missing.

Who it’s for

For marketers, founders and small businesses — people who own a brand without owning a design department. You are the one the favicon, the deck, the invoice header, the ad in the wrong aspect ratio and the social profile picture all end up with, usually at once and usually today.

It is not a replacement for the person who designed your identity. That original work is worth paying for, and the comparisons on this site say so plainly. What this removes is everything that follows the mark: the resizes, the recolours, the transparent cut-outs and the extra format someone asked for an hour ago — mechanical work that either queues behind a designer’s real projects or eats your afternoon.

For Marketers — Every placement in the media plan, from one upload.
For Founders — One logo into a launch-ready set of files.
For Developers — SVG, favicons, OG image and base64.
For Small Businesses — Print, signage, invoices and social profiles.

How it works

Most of the editor runs on your own machine. Recolouring, resizing, cropping, format conversion, palette extraction and the single-purpose tools all use your browser’s canvas, so your image is not uploaded in order to be edited. If you are signed in to the web app and have left autosave on, your work is also saved to private storage only your account can read, so you can pick it up again later; you can switch that off in the editor. The AI features — background removal, object removal, upscaling and generation — cannot work that way and do transmit your image to the model that performs the operation. Our privacy policy says exactly which is which, because that distinction matters more than any reassuring sentence about it.

Edits are kept as adjustable layers rather than flattened into the pixels, so a colour change six months from now regenerates the whole set instead of forcing a rebuild. Editing and previewing are free and need no account; a free account and credits cover full-resolution downloads, credits never expire, and every tool is available on every plan.

How the guides are written

The writing on this site is first-hand, and it follows a few rules worth stating because plenty of tool blogs do the opposite:

Recommend the right tool, not our tool. The comparisons say where Photoshop, Canva and Figma win outright, because they do, and a guide that pretends otherwise is not useful to anyone.
Say when something is not possible. A PNG cannot be turned into a real vector, and an upscaler cannot recover detail that was never captured. Guides that imply otherwise waste people’s afternoons.
Specifics over adjectives. Actual file sizes, actual menu paths, actual export settings — the things you look up at the moment you are stuck.
Corrections get made. Every post carries a published and a last-updated date, and the updated date moves when the content genuinely changes rather than on a schedule.

Mostly the subject is logo and brand file mechanics: vector versus raster, transparency and edge artefacts, colour systems, and the workflow questions that sit between a designer and a developer. There are 26 guides and comparisons on the blog.

The company

ICC Images is built by QwertyBit (SC QWERTYBIT SRL), based in Bucharest, RO, and founded by Vlad Niculescu, who also writes the guides. You can find the company on LinkedIn.

If something on this site is wrong, out of date, or missing, we would genuinely like to know — corrections are the cheapest way to make the guides better, and the support page reaches a monitored inbox.
