- Description
- The NEO file format, associated with Neochrome (ST & TT), is a bitmap image file type originally designed for use on Atari ST and Atari TT series computers. It is known for storing pixel-based images in a specific color palette that was popular among early computer graphics and digital art in the 1980s and early 1990s. The format supports a limited number of colors, typical of the graphical capabilities of the hardware of that era. NEO files were commonly used by artists and game developers for creating and sharing digital images, sprites, and backgrounds in a low-resolution format.
- 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.
