another problem is again, photoshop. for some reason
it stores black and white images as 2 channel tiffs
that nothing in linux can read.
in other words, save as tiff, but be carefull about
asking for tiff. if dealing with photoshop users, ask
for PSD which the gimp can read and turn into a proper
tiff. (at least proper for most unix apps)

libtiff is so easy to use...
makes it easy to just want to go with the generic

your working on...
