Convert PNG to SUMO

Understanding PNG and SUMO file formats

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a widely used raster image format known for its lossless compression and support for transparency. It is commonly used for web graphics, digital artwork, and screenshots.

SUMO files are associated with Sumo Paint, a web-based image editing application. The SUMO file format is a proprietary format that stores layered image data, effects, and editing history, similar to how PSD files work in Adobe Photoshop.

This is especially useful for graphic designers and digital artists who want to enhance or modify their PNG images using Sumo Paint's tools.
