I wanna match a specific pattern using grep(). My pattern has two parts:

1. exclude "." or ".." (to exclude the current and parent
directory in unix)
2. the file type is jpg.

The first pattern I am using is !/^\.\.?$/
The second is /\.jpg$/i

How to combine them together? using two greps or a single
one?

You don't need both patterns because a file name *CANNOT* match both of those patterns at the same time. Just use /\.jpg$/i.
