It appears that most better viewers will actually TEST the file
and determine what format it actually is.  I believe TB! just
assumes if it is a JPG, then it should didplay with that
"overlay."

If you have a text editor that will open ANY files in HEX mode (I
use UltraEdit), then the first few bytes of the file identify
which format it is;

GIF89a‘..... - or similar in the first few bytes is a GIF

ÿØÿàJFIF.... - or similar in the first few bytes indicates a JPG

Try it if you have the text editor with this capability.
