- Description
- The SFW file format is associated with Seattle FilmWorks, a photography and film processing company. It was primarily used for images that were developed and digitized by Seattle FilmWorks. The format was proprietary, meaning it required specific software provided by Seattle FilmWorks or compatible third-party applications to view or convert the images. SFW files were popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s, especially among consumers who used Seattle FilmWorks' mail-order film developing service.
- 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.
