There are 3 formats that are most used. There are more but the most common are: .png .jpg (same as .jpeg) .gif (for animated images)
Compression methods are used for images compression and most common compressions are JPEG which is lossy (you can lost some details or quality of image), LZW which is lossless, RLE and ZIP also lossless compressions.
it really depends on your phone. for most modern cellphones it is possible to do so.
Inline images are most widely stored in one of two formats: GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) or JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group).
Most common graphic file extensions are: .jpg .jpeg .png .gif (for animated images)
I presume you mean the popular form of JPEG; JPEG2000 addresses most of the problems: The biggest problem is that JPEGs are lossy - when an image is converted to JPEG, some of the information in the image is lost. Professional photographers tend to avoid working repeatedly with JPEG images as continually loading and saving the image causes the image to lose quality. JPEGs don't support layers - most photo manipulation software use layers; to save images as JPEGs the image has to be "flattened". JPEGs only support 8 bit images. Modern digital cameras can operate in 12, 14 or 16 bit mode but if the images are saved as JPEGs, the extra information is discarded.
The storage format used for captured still images will differ. JPEG or JPG are the most common formats, however, TIFFs are reportedly better for storage.
JPEG is is file format for most things on Google Images.
.gif is a file format. Most commonly .gif files are animations or images with a short 5-10 second effect. Non-animation image file formats are: .Jpeg and .PNG.
A GIF animation is essentially a flipbook, it is several frames put together in order to "simulate" animation. Gif animations are often crude and low resolution. Flash anim. on the other hand is made with Dreamweaver (or some other program), where the possibilities of creation(animation) are endless :)

It is possible the settings for recording the images have been set wrong in camera. Most cameras save images as JPEG. (Stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group). Some cameras allow you to save as RAW files. Check your camera settings are set to JPEG. It is also possible your computer needs a program to read your files. Most cameras have a dvd with a programme on for you to use.
