Best format depends on what's in the graphic. For blocks of color, lines, text, etc, GIF usually works best. The lines will be crisp and file size relatively small. For photos or graphics with a lot of shading (like a drawing), JPG will work better than a GIF.
I think most browsers can use PNG format, but most people don't use those for some reason. I'm not sure if the quality or file size on PNGs is better or worse than JPGs.
