eXperimental Computing Facility (.xcf)

The XCF (eXperimental Computing Facility) file extension is the native image format of the GIMP image-editing program. It stores comprehensive image data, including layers, channels, transparency, paths, and guides, facilitating non-destructive editing. Developed by GIMP, XCF ensures all editing information is preserved, allowing users to revert to any editing stage. While primarily used within GIMP, some other programs also support XCF files.

AOLpress Raster Technology (.art)

The ART file extension, associated with PFS: 1st Publisher, stands for "AOLpress Raster Technology". Developed by America Online (AOL), this format was designed to optimize image download speeds over slow internet connections by employing high compression ratios. ART files store single, highly compressed images, allowing for incremental rendering similar to progressive JPEGs. While it was useful in the past, the ART format has largely been replaced by more modern image formats.
