- Description
- The RIX file type, associated with ColoRIX, refers to an image file format used primarily in the late 1980s and early 1990s. ColoRIX was a graphics program that allowed users to create and manipulate images on PCs, particularly known for its use on systems running DOS. RIX files contain bitmap images saved in the ColoRIX format, supporting a range of colors and resolutions suitable for digital art and design of that era. Although not commonly used in modern graphics work, RIX files represent an interesting part of digital art history, especially for enthusiasts of retro computing and software.
- A JPEG file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports up to 24-bit color and is compressed using lossy compression, which may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used. JPEG files are commonly used for storing digital photos and web graphics.
