 Fast-forward to modern days. Now we have full-color high resolution LCD displays in every office, demanding consumers sit in front of these monitors. The icons gained in terms of resolution and color depth, adding sizes of 48x48 pixels and color depth of 32 bits. What's more important, some of these bits were used as a semi-transparency mask, giving those icons a slick look allowing them to be blended into the graphical user interface of an application no matter what color scheme the user preferred. 
If you are developing applications for today's market, you are probably going to be just fine with these sizes alone. But what about the future? Today's monitors have a typical resolution of 96 DPI (dots per inch), rendering a 48x48 icon exactly into a half-inch square. High-definition flat panels of the near future will have resolutions as high as 240 or 320 DPI, thus rendering that same 48x48 icon into a square of 1/5 or 1/6 inch. Obviously, 48 by 48 dots are not going to be enough for comfortable viewing on flat panels with smaller dots and higher pixel densities. The same goes for displays larger than today's 22 or 24 inches. That's why Microsoft has introduced a new standard for Windows icons in its latest incarnation of Windows: 256x256 pixels. If you would like your software to look good on new high-definition displays of the near future, consider implementing this icon size into your project.
