PiCture eXchange (.pcx)

The PCX file extension, standing for PiCture eXchange, is a raster image format developed by ZSoft Corporation in 1985 for its PC Paintbrush software. It became one of the first widely accepted DOS imaging standards, supporting palette-indexed images from 2 to 256 colors and later true-color (24-bit) images. PCX files use RLE (Run-Length Encoding) compression, making them smaller in size. Although largely replaced by formats like BMP, JPEG, and PNG, PCX was pivotal in early computer graphics and is still supported by various image processing software.

Targa Graphics (.vst)

The VST file extension, associated with Truevision Advanced Raster Graphics Adapter (TARGA), is a raster graphics file format developed by Truevision Inc. (now part of Avid Technology) in 1984. It was designed for high-color display support on IBM-compatible PCs and is commonly used for digital photos and textures. The format supports various color depths and includes an alpha channel for transparency. It remains popular in the video and animation industry due to its ability to handle large, high-quality images with minimal quality loss.
