Ani files are Windows Animated Cursor files that are used for displaying custom animated mouse cursors in the Windows operating system. They are similar to animated GIFs and can be created with various image editing programs.
The IVB file format is associated with Truevision Targa, commonly referred to as TGA, which is a raster graphics file format. It is primarily designed for Truevision (now part of Avid Technology) video hardware, but it is widely used in various applications for storing image data. IVB files are distinct in that they were specifically used in the past for certain types of image data, including thumbnails and textures for video and animation software. The format supports various color depths and can include both compressed and uncompressed image data, making it versatile for graphic design and digital imaging tasks.
