 It takes a source file named `example.gif` and produce an output ICO file named `example.ico`. `example.ico` will contain a single image that is the same size as the source image.

+
+```php
+require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/class-php-ico.php' );
+
+$source = dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/example.gif';
+
+$ico_lib = new PHP_ICO( $source );
