Yes, that's on page 38 of the Style Guide PDF: Step 13 (of 28 steps), "Working with Images." You can insert either .jpg or .png, but they recommend .png. The .jpgs look great in the Kindle version of my husband's book, so now I have to decide if I want to convert them to .png for Smashwords.

EDIT: DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN, THE "STYLE GUIDE" IS A BOOK.... My head. It explodes.
Sorry, but I laughed out loud when I read this! That's how I've been feeling. Last month we published the Kindle version, earlier this month we published the paperback at Amazon, and my husband's been working on another book too. It may be time for a break from things book-related, methinks...

Once we work through the Smashwords formatting process, step by step, I'm sure it won't be as overwhelming at it appears now. I just hope that the results are excellent because formatting is important to me.
