Probably TIF.  Whatever format is being used by people doing creative
work for product packaging, POP displays, trade ads, FSI's, etc.
Mac users, no doubt.

To tell you the truth, I am not sure.  I guess it would be best if
the plug in, Java script, or whatever it is that can do this would
do that automatically and transparently.  At the risk of showing
my age, I remember back in the good old (pre-Internet) days we used 
to use communications software like ProComm Plus to move files from 
one PC to another.  These packages would use protocols like xmodem 
and would handle all the CRC checking to make sure the file got from 
PC 'A' to PC 'B' in one piece.  I guess I am looking for something
like that that would work across the Internet.
