source code and i didn’t find something. (in SDL and SDL_image)

I don’t know about SDL_image, but if that cannot save else than BMP you
could try DevIL (was first named OpenIL). With that you can easily save to
almost any image format with just one line of code.

SDL_image doesn’t have image saving capabilities yet but it’s planned.
Meanwhile, try ftp://ptah.lnf.kth.se/pub/misc/savetga.c for saving in
the TGA format
