GetPixel question

[drgold]

My apologies if this is an FAQ, but I couldnt find any answers...
I have an image and I want to store the RGB of each pixel into a
3-dimensional array. Right now Im using the GetPixel method but Im
wondering if there is a faster way. Heres what Im doing right now,
but it runs slower than Id like:

Loop through all pixels, saving the color of each one
Dim curColor As Color
Dim nRgb(nWidth, nHeight, 2) As Integer
Dim nRed, nGreen, nBlue As Integer
For x = 0 To nWidth - 1
For y = 0 To nHeight - 1
curColor = bmpOut.GetPixel(x, y)
nRgb(x, y, 0) = curColor.R
nRgb(x, y, 1) = curColor.G
nRgb(x, y, 2) = curColor.B
Next
Next


Any suggestions? Thanks so much...

I have no idea if this can help at all, but I remember someone mention this and I remember it being way over my head

Try searching for a colormatrix

Take a look at this blog:

It is about a C# octree implementation, so it has to go through all the pixels in an image.
