[OS X TeX] TeXShop: how to remedy "Unknown graphics extension: .eps"

[Alexandre Bouquin]

Okay, it works by changing the Typeset menu to the option "TeX and 
Ghostscript".
Cool. I also did download ImageMagick with i-installer but do not see 
any "epstopng" nor "eps2png" (all I found are "epstopdf").
Am I doing something wrong?
