Hello Ute and Aaaron, Thanks for your suggestions.
It looks like Ute might be on the right track. I noticed that I did not have any issue with the .gif images, so I will transform the .tiff into .gif. Just to clarify: The issue was with the Mozilla/Firefox browser not able to display .tiff, Safari can do it fine.
