I transfer pictures between my Mac and PC via my home network in JPG format. I also send and receive photos in JPG with no problem. I use Photoshop elements and graphic converter to manipulate photos and have never had a problem.
PowerMail is my email application and I use it's "attach" feature to send photos. I DO NOT compress JPG's as they are already compressed. Powermail offers encoding options. If I am sending to another Mac I use the "Smart (auto-detect)" option. If I don't know the receiver's platform then I use the "Base64 (Windows)" option. The other options, which I don't use are: "UUEncode (UNIX)", "Binhex (Macintosh)", and "AppleDouble (all)". I am copying Jerry Freeman on this question. Perhaps he can shed some light on the subject.
