tga-js

tga-js is a tga file loader written in JavaScript, working in the browser environment. It provides a simple and really fast solution for loading TGA file format.

Lot of games are using TGA files to store textures. So, since browsers try to bring games in the web it can be a good idea to have a TGA loader (actually a better idea to use another smaller file format).
