Does anyone know what a TIFF image is? And can I post TIFF images on this website? ???
I always use JPG. But I don't know what that is ether. I do know what a RAW image is though. :)

TIFF - Tagged Image File Format - A standard digital image format for bitmapped graphics in an uncompressed state. The image files are much larger than compressed files, but can be opened in all image-processing programs.

JPEG - An acronym for Joint Photographic Experts Group that describes an image file format standard in which the size of the file is reduced by compressing it. A "JPEG" image file name carries the extension "jpg" - e.g. "portrait.jpg"
