On the Info panel stand:
-----------------------------------------
Window Maker Version 0.91.0
...
Supported image formats: XPM PPM PNG JPEG
...
-----------------------------------------

I remember that, that there in the pixmaps and icons directories out 
there weren't these .tiff images, or mayhap I'm wrong?

And now, when there are these .tiff images, WPrefs can't load these 
.tiff images, because wmaker Version 0.91.0 not support tiff images.

What is the solution?

I red something about Debian tiff support here:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=hu&ie=ISO-8859-2&q=tiff+support+on+Debian+sarge&btnG=Google+keres%E9s&lr=

------------>
A flaw was also uncovered in libtiffs custom tag support which may
result in abnormal behaviour, crashes, or potentially arbitrary
code execution.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 3.7.2-7.
------------<

But, in the Debian Sarge there the libtiff package has 
Version: 3.7.2-3 and not 3.7.2-7 .
