Yes, but as far as I know PNG did not exist at that time. GIF was a superior format on the 256-color screens in term of compression vs image quality, but JPEG was safer.
(True, PNG beats them all, I use this format for just about everything which doesn't require layers or animation ^^ But at the time, there was a compromise about compression quality vs licensing quality)
