Sorry about that, the old dyslexia kicking in. I personally have never heard of anyone using TIF in a site since it is huge and JPG is generally high enough quality. I do like PNG from spending so much time in Fireworks which is PNG native, but I have been frustrated too many times dealing with the less than stellar implementation of PNG on the older versions of IE still in heavy use.
I imagine that if someone was an artist or something of that nature and required the highest resolution possible they may need TIF, but even then I am not sure it would be warranted. The only time I work with a TIF is for items going to press.
