Personalized Image Capture Technology (.pict)

The PICT file extension, developed by Apple in 1984, stands for Personalized Image Capture Technology. It was originally used by the QuickDraw graphics library on Macintosh computers to interchange both vector and bitmap graphics. PICT files have since been deprecated in favor of formats like PDF, but they were crucial for graphics exchange in early Mac applications.

AV1 Image File Format (.avif)

AVIF, or AV1 Image File Format, is a modern image format derived from the AV1 video codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media. It is designed to deliver high-quality images with superior compression efficiency compared to traditional formats like JPEG and PNG. This format supports advanced features such as HDR (High Dynamic Range), WCG (Wide Color Gamut), 10-bit color depth, and alpha transparency, making it ideal for web developers and digital content creators seeking to optimize performance and visual fidelity. Introduced in 2018, AVIF has rapidly gained adoption due to its open-source nature and effectiveness in reducing file sizes without compromising quality.
