Frequently Asked Questions

Is the conversion process secure?

Yes, we prioritize the security of your files. Your images are processed on our servers and are not stored permanently.

What is the maximum file size I can convert?

The maximum file size is 5MB. If your file is larger, please consider compressing it before uploading.

Can I convert multiple VICAR files at once?

Currently, our converter supports single file conversions. You will need to convert each VICAR file individually.

What if the converted PNG8 image looks different from the original VICAR?

While we strive for perfect conversion, slight differences may occur due to the different color palettes and compression methods. PNG8 uses a limited color palette, which may result in some color loss compared to the original VICAR image.

About VICAR and PNG8

VICAR (Video Image Compression and Archiving Raster) is an image format originally used by the Commodore 64. PNG8 (Portable Network Graphics 8-bit) is a widely supported raster graphics file format known for its lossless compression and ability to store images with a limited color palette. Converting from VICAR to PNG8 allows you to modernize and share your classic Commodore 64 images with broader compatibility.
