- Description
- The KOA file type is primarily associated with Koala Paint, a bitmap graphics editor for the Commodore 64, a popular home computer in the 1980s. KOA files contain images created or edited within the Koala Paint software, leveraging the Commodore 64's specific color palette and resolution limitations. These files capture the nostalgic essence of early computer graphics, characterized by their pixel art style and limited color range. Koala Paint was notable for its use of a light pen or joystick as drawing tools, making it a precursor to modern digital art applications.
- 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.
