Answer 1

I use this simple extension to convert a stream, all it does is convert it though and does nothing for quality.

public static Stream ConvertImage(this Stream originalStream, ImageFormat format)
{
                var image = Image.FromStream(originalStream);

                var stream = new MemoryStream();
                image.Save(stream, format);
                stream.Position = 0;
                return stream;
}

usage:

var outputStream = gifStream.ConvertImage(ImageFormat.Png);
