the simple way is to use the eps format with ps2pdf for pdf output. With
eps, you can see your images in lyx, but maybe not for other format (I
haven't tried).

I don't know if lyx can read png picture directly. When I have a png and I
will use pdflatex, I do the following way:
- after insert figure float, adding some caption
- add following in ERT
\centering
\includegraphics[width=7cm]{myfigure} % without extention
maybe need command \usepackage{graphicx} in preamble (I haven't
remembered).

I have used gimp/imagemagick to modify my raster image too. You should set
the image size by using command [width=...cm]
