do you converted the images with jpeg2eps?
if not get the package from ctan:

jpeg2ps
Converts JPEG files to PostScript Level 2 or 3 EPS. In fact, jpeg2ps is
not really a converter but a ``wrapper'': it reads the
image parameters (width, height, number of color components) in a JPEG
file, writes the according EPS header and then
copies the compressed JPEG data to the output file. Decompression is
done by the PostScript interpreter (only PostScript
Level 2 and 3 interpreters support JPEG compression and decompression).
