I have something that will do this, if you are using VTK through
python.  I have two modules called vtkPILImageReader.py and
vtkPILImageWriter.py that use the Python Imaging Library to
read & write jpeg, gif, png, tiff, and many other formats.

Another place to look is http://www.imagemagick.org/, they
provide free tools to convert between virtually any image file
format on virtually any computer platform.

Actually, considering how liberal the ImageMagick license is
(unrestricted use, modification, and redistribution as long as the
copyright+license are included in full or substantial copies)
it might be an idea to have them linked on the VTK web page.
Many VTK users would probably find ImageMagick very useful,
and maybe bits of ImageMagick could eventually be incorporated
into VTK.
