The original source is from [http://www.libsdl.org libSDL].  A gamecube version was found in the devkitPro CVS repository.  Mindcry made the port compatible with the Wii and added on sound, SDL_mixer and SDL_image.

Many authors have contributed to the SDL Wii port over the years. The original source is from [http://www.libsdl.org libSDL].  A GameCube version was found in the devkitPro CVS repository.  Mindcry made the port compatible with the Wii and added on sound, SDL_mixer and SDL_image. Devildante recompiled a version of SDL_image with libjpeg support, and added SDL_gfx and SDL_ttf with FreeType. Numerous changes were also made by Yohannes (threading, audio, etc), and David Hudson updated to the latest SDL SVN. Tantric has also rewritten portions, including the file access and audio systems.

I've recompiled SDL_Image with png and jpg support (thanks to scanff for this usefull tips) you will need libjpeg and linpng from the [http://wiibrew.org/wiki/List_of_development_tools ported library page]
