Vampyre Imaging Library is up to date and actual. Supports Free Pascal and Delphi, I personally have successfully built and used it @ Raspberry Pi 2

It's just its home page that smells so, stuck in 2009 with a grossly outdated download link (ptruint = cardilnal, the horror).

For up to date, see the author's forum: https://galfar.vevb.net/imaging/smf/index.php
You can ask him question and he will answer https://galfar.vevb.net/imaging/smf/index.php/topic,937.msg2001/topicseen.html#msg2001

The library is priceless in its huge scope of supported formats, both image file formats and pixel formats, and its built-in Lanczos resampler.
Must have if you work with GLES2 which requires you convert image into required internal format yourself.

The source code is MPL1 + LGPL, will be migrated to MPL2 (which has built-in clause about double-licensing under GPL) - which is *priceles* since I'm moving onto grayer stuff of modding where I can't take unmodded LGPL with me.

Used this in plenty of projects in last 15 years, the library is amazing.

I remember I used it once to make a custom format conversion application. Nice to see it's still alive.
