GBR stands for GIMP Brush Image file Format. These files are used by open source image editing programs such as GIMP or GNU Image Manipulation Program, and are used for storing repeatable graphics for the GIMP canvas.
A GBR file contains information about layers, groups, masks, channels and guides in a user brush. Data in a GBR file is stored in a gzipped format and is lossless in nature. The data stored in GBR format can be ordinary and color, which is defined by the header in the GBR file. Ordinary scheme allows data to be stored in the grayscale format and color scheme allows data to be stored in the RGBA format.
