SIGMA image file format

Stands for:

• Super
• Image
• Graphics
• Memory
• Allocation

Sigma is a highly-intuitive very lossy yet heavy image storage filetype!

Why use SIGMA

Ever wanted to open a picture in your text editor?

Sigma stores its colors in an intuitive plaintext manner. Instead of allocating mere bytes tot pixel color data, we use a full plaintext description from the CSS 3 color set!

Here we believe quantization shouldn't be built to maximize efficiency and minimize loss, but it should be as intuitive as possible. Use colors HUMANS know, because HUMANS can see them!

How to use

To get started, just open main.py. There are to functions to use: from_sigma() and to_sigma()

Example:

red	red	red	red	red	red	red	red	 blue	blue	blue	blue	blue	blue	blue	blue
