Firstly I just need to say I am not a graphic designer and I don't know how to use Photoshop or Corel draw.... is this for publishing images on your website?

From the way I understand it, from what I have been told, a PNG is better quality but it is a larger image. A JPG is slightly less quality but the size is much smaller. For this reason it was recommended to me to use JPG images on my website because it can affect loading speed which in turn can affect my readers user experience on my website and may even possibly affect my ranking in turn.

Like I said this is not my area of expertise, so this is what other people have advised me Saving in JPEG and PNG,..which is more appropriate and okay?

Most images on websites are saved as .JPG. The .JPG extension is the most widely used image format. If you want your website to load fast, and to seamlessly, always use .JPG. Only attempt to use .PNG extension when you have a large image that you don't want to render for web pages because you'll lose the image quality. I personally like to use JPGs when I save images for a website but I will use .PNG for service images because PNG has a higher quality.

Thank you so much everett and idealmike, you have all said all and both arguments are the same, from these, i will go for JPEG format when i want to use the images on websites and the internet generally but PNG when i want to print it out in form of flyers, posters etc. i have finally gotten my answer to my question.
