It's a bit weird, because ticket #14693 is 3 years old and I'm positive I've used ShowImage to successfully convert PNG to JPG in the past 2 months.

It has obviously been a while but as noted in that ticket, when I tested it was inconsistent, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. So maybe it worked for you back when you last tried but recently it didn't. If you tried again maybe it would work. Maybe it depends on the translator?

I have had a plan for a very long time to introduce an Image or ImageModel class in ShowImage to hold information about the image, which believe it or not, we don't really have. Like the original MIME type and file name. Adding this should help fix a bunch of the current bugs, including this one.

I can probably finally start working on this in the next month or so.
