Harry, Sorry to be long getting back to you, I had a graduation party to attend.
I did fine with the 16 bit grayscale, seems not as harsh as the black & white. My yearbook IS black & white so if yours is in color then I would think 24 bit would be adequate. As far as on the web, I don't know what looks best, someone else will need to suggest.
