Image file format converter

Hello members
What is the best image file format converter. Say if I want to convert from .tiff to .jpeg and others.
Would be nice if someone could give a hint.

Thanks

I have used the shareware GraphicConverter for a long time now and to me it is great.

Gimp is also great: http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/
Requires X11 be installed on your computer. Read the site for instructions.

Converts files and gives photoshop-like image editing capability for free. Pretty sweet!

"The best" is subjective, so there isn't one, single answer to "what is the best image file format converter." The answer is "whichever one works best for you."

With that said, my favorite is PhotoShop.

Well, that's almost entirely useless, I believe, for large TIFF files. This online service would take ages for batch-converting (not even possible), say, a couple hundred files. Graphic Converter FTW.

You might be right when it comes to large files(and not having a good pipeline). If I want to convert a plan or drawing from tiff to jpeg that system as suggested by falconrs is very much adequate!

i'm also working with photoshop but just to convert image formats, why don't use the preview.app?
