Generally you should use JPEG, since it is supported by more newsreaders 
and the download time is shorter(and they take less room on the server). 
If the PNG is small and fine detail needs to be preserved(like in some 
recent logo images), PNG's are also acceptable. If you have a large 
image that can't take JPEG compression, it is usually suggested to 
upload it to a web page and post a message with a link to the 
full-quality version and maybe a preview image.

Sometimes people post GIF files too, they aren't very common though.
