Hello Mustafa,

If you use any of WebSite X5's built-in image effects/processing features which use transparency then the image(s) will be converted to PNG in this way.

Please see this extract from the help file:

Files are converted to .JPG (or .PNG if they have transparency applied)

Kind regards,

Paul

i use sometimes "placing-background color" as transparency to make "The main Background" visible, then i see many of photos as .png, is that the problem?

Yes, that is correct.  The image files need to be converted to PNG in such instances, as the JPG format does not support transparency.
