fPic digs Tiff

Added TIFF support via libtiff, which was easy enough. Is it just me, or TIFF is a dang bizarre format? Not only the byte order is way up the yahzoo scale (ABGR, wdf?), but in the end I had to rot180 and hMirror the image buffer in order to get a correct image… Damn weird. Lucky I had those fast square-angle rotation routines up and running already!

(lib)PNG is still escaping me, I am down now to producing my own. Grrr.


If you wonder what the image represents, it’s a Jurchen character. Reads “tasha” and means Tiger. Yup.
