Sizes and quality
The Ice texture is 16×16 pixels in game. Here it scales by multiplying each pixel by a whole number, so at 1024 px every pixel is a perfect square and the edges stay sharp. No interpolation smudging the pixel art.

Ice forms when water freezes in cold biomes, mainly frozen oceans and rivers and snowy beaches. It breaks easily but only drops as a block with Silk Touch; otherwise it gives nothing and, if there was a block underneath, leaves a water source behind.
Its appeal is how slippery it is. Boats on ice can reach 40 metres per second, against 8 on water. And because ice can be placed in the Nether, where each block counts for eight in the Overworld, plenty of players build ice highways there to cover huge distances in seconds. Sprint-jumping on ice in a two-block-high corridor is also extremely fast, though it burns through hunger.
Ice melts if the block light next to it goes above level 11, for example from a nearby torch; sunlight does not affect it. In the Nether, breaking or melting it leaves no water.
Nine ice make packed ice, and nine packed ice make blue ice, which is even more slippery. Neither can be crafted back, so they are no use as storage.
