Brian,
You don't miss much! After several comments about a small flaw in the leaf
in the image, and an explanation of how images are displayed on a monitor, I
made an 8-bit version of the tulip image, removed the flaw, and uploaded the
resulting jpeg image to replace the tiff image in the gallery.
However, I believe you are correct about the gallery software. I examined
another image that I uploaded as a tiff, and it shows that it is displayed
in the gallery as a jpeg image. So, I have just been kidding myself about
any differences that I thought I was noticing.
