Young Picasso is a paint program for DOS, designed for children. It was developed by Scarborough Digital, later Blueview Software. Some versions of it (at least 1.3-1.5) have an associated .YP raster graphics format.

Format details

YP (v1.3-1.5) format seems to have a 24-byte header, but only every third byte is used, the rest being zeroes. This could be a hack to make the files compatible with older versions of the software. If so, there must be an older version of the format that lacks the header.

Identification

YP (v1.3-1.5) files apparently start with bytes (hex) 50 00 00 50 00 00 52 00 00, which might be a signature (Pablo Picasso's initials?).
