Is there a tool that can convert common image formats (.bmp, jpg,..) to .emf files?

I'm using the GoDiagrams suite which seems to recommend .emf files for node images since they scale better on resizing. Bitmaps get all blurry.

Alright, so I'm working on an application which will use a Linux back-end running PostgreSQL to serve up images to a Windows box with the front end written in C#.NET, though the front-end should hardly matter.

If you add a image to your browser's DOM, IE6 will not check its cache to see if it already downloaded the image but will, instead, re-retrieve it from the server. I have not found any combination of HTTP response headers (of the ensuing image request) to convince IE6 that it can cache the image: Cache-control, Expires, Last-modified. ...

How can I fix an issue in IE where borders don't show up when the mouse isn't hovered over an image.
