Description: The API currently return 503 for TIF images. Aside from being a misleading error message it would be nice to support TIFF.
Example

The API will now return 501 Not Implemented for unsupported image types, or non-images (like HTML pages).

TIFF is also supported, using this library: https://github.com/haraldk/TwelveMonkeys
