- The GBR file format is associated with GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), a freely distributed image editing software. It is specifically used to store custom brush designs that can be used within the GIMP software for various drawing and painting purposes. These brush files allow users to create and save their own brush patterns, shapes, and textures, enhancing their digital artwork and editing capabilities. The GBR format enables easy sharing and distribution of custom brushes within the GIMP user community.

This file type specifically contains multi-resolution bitmap images, enabling artists and designers to create and manipulate images with varying levels of detail and color depth. The GigaPaint software suite was notable for its ability to handle detailed graphic work, making it a popular choice for video game developers, graphic artists, and animation creators during the late 1980s and early 1990s. The .gig format embodies the era's push towards more sophisticated digital art capabilities on personal computers.
