You can get by with creating only a large version of your icon. But you may not like the results
when Windows shrinks it down.
Icons large and small
In 32-bit Windows, an icon really consists of two icons: one large
and one small. Both icons reside in the same ICO file. The large
icon measures 32 by 32 pixels; Windows uses it for shortcuts, in
dialog boxes, and in Explorer when you choose to view files as
large icons. The small icon measures 16 by 16 pixels; Windows uses
it on the taskbar, on application title bars, in the File |
Open... dialog box, and in Explorer when you choose to view files
as small icons.
When you're creating your own icon, Windows doesn't require you to
provide the small version. Instead, you can create only a large
icon, and Windows will shrink it in situations requiring a small
icon. Be aware, however, that the shrunken icon's quality may not
be high enough to meet your standards; it's often worth the extra
effort to create both sizes.
