- Description
- The HBM file type is associated with the Commodore 64 (C64), a popular 8-bit home computer from the 1980s. Specifically, HBM files are used to store high-resolution bitmap images for the C64. These files allow for the display of detailed graphics and images on the C64's hardware, leveraging its graphical capabilities. The format is utilized by artists and programmers who create or modify graphics for C64 applications, games, or demos.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
