I meant which one is used in the context of internet forums. For example, what would you call the photographs/pictures you have put in your profile?

Photographs - because they are images taken with a camera. (This is the most specific term.)
Pictures - because that's what they are. (Visually recognizable images.)
Images - even more general. Images can be all black or all white, and be completely nonrepresentational.
