- Description
- The ICN file format is associated with RIPTerm Image, which is a specific type of graphic file. It was primarily used in conjunction with RIPTerm, a software application designed for accessing Bulletin Board Systems (BBS) in a graphical manner, popular before the widespread adoption of the internet. ICN files contain images or icons that were used within the RIPTerm interface to enhance the user experience by providing a visually rich environment. These files are a part of the legacy computing era and are not commonly used in modern computing environments.
- A PSD file is an image file created by Adobe Photoshop, a professional image-editing program often used to enhance digital photos and create web graphics. It is the native format used to save files in Photoshop. PSD files may include image layers, adjustment layers, layer masks, annotations, file information, keywords, and other Photoshop-specific elements. They are commonly created and shared among graphics professionals.
