- 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 TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
