- Description
- The PI6 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, graphics programs that were popular on the Atari ST computers during the late 1980s and early 1990s. These files contain images or artwork created and saved using the Degas or the more advanced Degas Elite software, which offered a variety of painting and drawing tools for digital artists. The PI6 format specifically denotes a particular resolution and color depth, characteristic of the capabilities of the Atari ST's graphical hardware. Despite being somewhat obsolete, the PI6 format remains of interest to vintage computing enthusiasts and digital art historians.
- A JPG file is an image saved in a compressed image format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It is commonly used for storing digital photos and used by most digital cameras to save images. JPG files are among the most common image files along with .PNG, .TIF, and .GIF.
