Why convert DDS to PNG?

DDS is a GPU-compressed texture format used almost exclusively in game engines; standard image viewers cannot open it. Converting to PNG lets you inspect, edit, or share the texture using any normal image application.

This format requires a WebAssembly decoder — allow a moment for library loading
