I have done the same for my PhD, your options are:
* convert the jpg to eps (the gimp does a good job for that) and
stick to latex
* convert your pstricks figures to pdf (which will keep the vector
graphic format) via epstopdf and use pdflatex
The Gimp for windows: http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/

Hope this helps
