One of the big differences between JPG and PNG is that PNG has the ability to use a transparent background.

One aspect of my job is creating photorealistic rendering of our products for catalog, website and print usage. I render everything out at a 1800 x 1200 PNG. This equates to a 6″ x 4″ image if being used in a magazine or catalog. I use PNG because they have the transparent background which means no weird box around the image.
