I am currently working on a project, and among the things that I wanted to implement is the ability to convert any uploaded file into JPEG files to reduce files' size. After a little research, I found how easy was it to achieve this in .NET 2.0. The below code snippet will provide the core part, and definitely you can play with the properties to tailor it for your needs.

// specify the source file

FileStream fs = new FileStream([Source File Path], FileMode.Open);

// load stream into an Image object

System.Drawing.Image SourceImage = Bitmap.FromStream(fs);

// specify where you would like to store the converted file

// ImageFormat class has a variety of image option like PNG, TIFF, GIF, etc

SourceImage.Save([Target file path], ImageFormat.Jpeg);

// close the stream to release the used resources

fs.Close();
