High quality JPEG is nice for big pictures with lots of gradients, else use PNG. I generally resize my shots to 800x600 when I need to post them on internet. If you need to show more details on your shots, go for a 1024x768 resolution.

You can work with compression levels with PNG images. I personally find that PNG is as good or superior to JPEG at similar file sizes. You just need to play around and see what you like. One helpful hint: ImageMagick is a great way to do batch editing of files. You can resize and convert images one or many at a time; and since it has no GUI, it can do it in a hurry. You can get tutorials at their website:

jpeg regularly produces MUCH smaller image sizes.

I do not need full screen 1024x768 or 800x600 sized images

a Quarter of that would do....
