jpg is good for photos (with many colors and irregular shapes)
gif is good for line-art (like black/white pcb layout)
this is due to the compression algorithms.
don't use jpg for line art and don't use gif for photos - try it, you will
see why.
irfanview is also cool for scanning. there is crop selection and also stuff
like resize/resample.
It's just not made for drawing so you won't find a paintbrush in there.
(and it's a very good image viewer which knows any image format you can
imagine)
