- 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.
- The GG file type is associated with Koala Paint, a graphics program specifically designed for use on early home computers. It represents a compressed format used to store images created or edited within the Koala Paint software. This format allows for efficient storage by reducing the file size, making it easier to manage and share graphical data on systems with limited storage capacity. The GG extension is primarily recognized and used by vintage computing enthusiasts who engage in the preservation or emulation of classic computer systems and their software.
