- 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 PXA file type is primarily associated with Pegs, a digital image format. PXA files are used to store images created or edited within the Pegs software, which is often used for digital art and animation projects. These files contain both the image data and any additional metadata, such as layer information, that is relevant to the project. PXA files are specific to the Pegs software environment, making them less universally accessible without the proper application.
