TIF/TIFF files do not display a preview

[grantfitzsimmons]

Describe the bug After uploading a TIF or TIFF file to Specify, a preview cannot be seen when viewed in the attachment window. Thumbnails are generated as expected, but these are not visible on the form.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open Specify
2. Upload a TIF or TIFF file (e.g. leaves.tif.zip)
3. See that there is no preview

Expected behavior This should show a preview of the TIF file or at least use the thumbnail that was generated for it.

In case users are looking for a workaround, you can install a browser extension that enables you to render an appropriate preview:
