Hm... all entries except for one, are JPEGs.

JPEGs aren't ideal for logos, because the way they handle transitions
between areas of uniform colours.

And even if a logo is presented as a JPEG for ease of display
(supported by more web browsers than PNG), it's unwise to keep the
original as a JPEG, because all manipulations of the logo (eg. changes
in a drawing program, scaling) will need decoding, and then recoding,
with loss of information.
