- Description
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
- APX is a file format created by the graphics editing software Ability Photopaint. It is used to store images and graphic elements created with the program and can be exported to other file formats such as JPG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
