bad image format

what?

This is a project for me to learn and create my own raster image format. That's it, don't use this. It's completely uncompressed.

why?

In practicality, it isn't seen as a good thing to reinvent the wheel, but how are you supposed to understand it and why you need it when you make it yourself?

where?

This will go nowhere other than maybe in my other "made from scratch" projects.

how?

Gonna learn how to read and encode binary and as it is compared to plaintext. all image formats are is just standardized method of encoding/decoding images, that's it, there's really nothing inherent. So this will come with low-cost high-performance ways to decode/encode, and hopefully even convert to and from png's once I take this far enough. So technically you could use this, but like, why?
