Sorry, I've been in Hotlanta visiting my parents with the kiddies, so I'm
weighing in WAAYYY LATE on this.
But, for what it's worth, I'm a poster child for weak, infantile users...

You can AppleScript the Image Events application to do this. See:

And look for the header called File Conversion.

On most platforms, you can just check whether the last four characters
