Graphics image question

Hello everyone.  I have a DocBook document that has some images in it.  I
use the Cygnus tools to publish the SGML sources.  Now, db2html does a
great job, but db2ps and db2pdf gives some LaTeX errors about gif images
not being supported.  I switched to jpeg images, but the resulting
Postscript and PDF files look absolutely horrible (in one case, each pixel
of the image was rendered as a 50 pixel block, which is obviously
unacceptable).

So, does anyone know if there is anything I can do to get gif's or jpeg's
working?  If not, is there another image format that I should consider?
The only thing I would require from another format would be that it must
work with web browsers as well (so no eps files).

Any suggestions?
