5## Creating a `.dong` file
6
7A dong file is structured as follows:
8
9```txt
10d0<version>
11<image-mime><image-data>
12<audio-mime><audio-data>
13<image-data>
14<audio-data>
15```
16
17### Version
18
19Version is an 8 bit number that indicates the version of the dong file. This file documents version 2 of the dong file format. This is prefixed with the hex value d0 to indicate that this is a dong file. The first 16 bits of a version 2 `.dong` file should be `11010000 00000010`. If this does not match, it is either a different file format or version.

21### Image Metadata
22
23Image metadata starts with a mimetype. The mimetype is 255 bytes long, followed by a 00 byte. If the mimetype is shorter than 255 characters, the remaining bytes are filled with 00 bytes.
24The metadata is then followed with an image length, which must be 32 bits long. This represents the number of bytes in the image data.
