What formats are available for downloaded icons and how should users choose between them?

Thiings provides multiple file format options to accommodate different professional needs, each with specific advantages:

• PNG (Recommended for most users):
  – Lossless raster format with transparent backgrounds
  – Ideal for web design, mobile apps, and print materials
  – Typically 512×512 resolution suitable for most applications
• OBJ (For 3D professionals):
  – Industry-standard 3D model format
  – Compatible with Blender, Maya, Unity and other 3D software
  – Contains mesh data for further editing and animation

Selection guidelines:
1. For digital presentations or 2D designs: PNG ensures quick implementation with small file sizes
2. When 3D manipulation is needed: OBJ provides full model control including materials and lighting
3. For future-proofing assets: Downloading both formats preserves options for later workflow changes

The platform’s dual-format approach bridges the gap between 2D designers and 3D artists, making professional-grade assets accessible to diverse creative teams.
