It supports icons of 16 x 16, 32 x 32, 48 x 48, 128 x 128, 256 x 256, 512 x 512 points at 1x and 2x scale, with both 1- and 8-bit alpha channels and multiple image states (example: open and closed folders). The fixed-size icons can be scaled by the operating system and displayed at any intermediate size.
