Thanks for posting the photos on the web! What great modeling detail they
provide!

Just for information "porpoises," GIF and JPG will render "inline" -- that
is, through the web browser. Any other graphics format will need to "call"
or make an "association" with another application (such as one of the
photo "shops" or "editors" or paint programs). If the user has only a
browser, he/she can't view anything except JPG or GIF. 

Also, as one list member noted, often a JPG of 57Kb will "Save as" faster
than a TIFF only slightly larger (64Kb). That's because the JPG has
already been "saved" in the "temporary Internet" directory by the web
browser, while the TIFF has yet to be downloaded.
