Alias/Wavefront RLE Image Format (.pix)

The PIX file extension stands for Alias/Wavefront Run-Length Encoding (RLE) Image Format. Developed by Alias Systems Corporation (later acquired by Autodesk), it was designed for storing bitmap images in PowerAnimator and Alias 3D software. This format was instrumental in creating high-resolution 3D models and animations for movies and video games in the 1990s. The RLE compression minimized file size without compromising image quality, optimizing performance for graphics-heavy tasks. Although its usage has declined in favor of more versatile formats, PIX played a significant role in the evolution of computer graphics technology.

Portable Network Graphics (.png)

The Portable Network Graphics (PNG) file extension, established in 1996, serves as a widely-used raster graphics format that supports lossless data compression. Initially developed as a superior, patent-free replacement for the GIF format, PNG is prevalent in the IT industry for web design, digital photography, and complex graphics due to its capability to handle detailed images with transparent backgrounds and its extensive color range. Known for maintaining high-quality visuals without increasing file size significantly, PNG remains an indispensable tool in professional digital imaging and web development.
