- The GIH file type is primarily associated with GigaPaint Hi-res, a specialized format used for storing high-resolution images created with the GigaPaint software. GigaPaint was an advanced graphics program popular on the Commodore Amiga computer during the late 1980s and early 1990s, designed for artists and graphic designers. The GIH format specifically caters to the storage of detailed and complex images, supporting a wide range of colors and high resolutions characteristic of the software's capabilities. These files allow for the preservation of intricate artwork and designs, making them a valuable resource for digital artists and retro computing enthusiasts.
- The PI5 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, which are image editing and drawing programs developed for the Atari ST series of computers in the 1980s. These files contain bitmap graphics created or modified within the Degas software, supporting various resolutions and color palettes specific to the Atari ST platform. The PI5 format specifically corresponds to images with a medium resolution of 640x200 pixels in 4 colors. Due to the niche and historical nature of the software, opening or converting PI5 files may require specialized or legacy software solutions.
