Re: Clef design comparision

Re: Clef design comparision

For :t My favorites (in favorite order): 2, 5, 7. 2 and 7 are very similar. I have used mostly 2 and 5. 5 is somewhat small, but very balanced. I almost don't notice it - it can quickly be "digested"... If I can vote for the most ugly it is 3 and 4. 3 - very thin and "strange" in...

Re: No tiff-pictures

It is possible to embed:
.gif
.jpg
.jpeg
.png

All others extensions are possible to attach as documents, including .pdf .mus .sib .ai .zip an so on.

I highly recommend jpeg/jpg and png as embedded pictures

Disabling TIFF

Yes, the same. It doesn't work in all browsers, NOT in Chrome and NOT in Firefox.
