JPEG or PNG ?

Many people come asking about which format is better while working with images. Its not actual the format that matters but actually the situation and usage of that image.

George adds - "JPEGs are for photographs and realistic images. PNGs are for line art, text-heavy images, and images with few colors. GIFs are just fail."

xkcd uses PNG for their web comics while Hugh MacLeod prefer JPG format for his cartoons.
