No need to convert ico to png. Both work with OD. The quality will not improve by converting them.

Theoretically, the .ico format could be better quality because the author has the opportunity to provide several different sizes within the same file. With the .png format, ObjectDock has to generate all of the sizes on the fly, which may or may not look as good. It almost always looks just as good though.

Furthermore, with ICO's OD should give you better performance.
