I am a photographer, and as such work with graphics files. JEPEGs are limited to a 24-bit color depth. TIFFs have a 48-bit color depth. Anyone working in graphics would want to work with 48-bit images because they contain so much more information. However to make the files viewable in a Web browser, they must be dummied down to JEPEGs and lose much of their available information.
NASA publishes a lot of TIFFs 4K monitors are already common with Dell laptops and others, and 5K monitors are already becoming available. It'd be nice if Mozilla/Firefox came out with a browser ahead of the visual status quo rather than just keeping up with the past. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/673342 Title: [wishlist] Support displaying inline tiff images (to support mails fom Mac Mail) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/673342/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
