We talk about ignoring file extension 
here: 
https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!searchin/ossec-list/jesus/ossec-list/hFbTx5uxLmU/HTTNtrrbCgAJ

You could use: <ignore type="^sregex">.jpg$</ignore>

Also, you can create a specific rule with "<if_group>syscheck</if_group>".

Regards.
Jesus Linares.
