Well it seems to be a bit of a contradiction. My one was intended to only
find png or jpg at the end of the line as that was what the OP had intimated
was required.
Now you can hardly say that it would match ghijpgklmno or mnopngqrst at the
same time as saying that it'll only match with png or jpg at the end of the
line!
