You mean like this for example?

If you right click and view properties or look at the link I pasted, it will show the extension as JPG and not PNG

If this is what you meant, you can just add the extension of JPG/JPEG by renaming the file on your computer and then uploading it to the internet
i.e. renaming "pic1.PNG" --> "pic1.PNG.JPEG"
