I can see no difference here between newfile0x.png and newfile0x.jpg, so I would rather use the png file to be able to make it transparent. intop.png seems to have been resized: usually the bimapped image is OK if you avoid resizing. >> >>A thesis might have 175+ equations in it, which are all converted >>to .png files by htlatex.

If you prefer jpg, it would be better to hack the tex4ht configuration file, where conversions are described; this should take care of everything: image format and file name in html files.
