[Resolved][C#] Bitmap to something I can display?

[Pc_Madness]

Hey guys, I've got a resource file which I'm storing Bitmaps in (they're Image data type in .Net, but in the resource file they're System.Drawing.Bitmap).

I've read it out and converted it to a Bitmap, but now I need to get it to a format that I can display in WPF Image Control (takes an ImageSource I do believe). Any suggestions? :\ Google has epically failed me.

I dunno if theres a way to change how images get stored into a Resource file, maybe that could help solve the problem.

Can't you just set the source as the path to the image in the RESX file?

<Image Source="/Assemblyname;resourcefilename/abc.jpg" />

Else you'll have to set the Image1.Source property in code by converting the Bitmap to a BitmapSource. You could look at the BitmapSource.Create method, though there may be other ways.

Neg, the resource files are external, I'm using them as thumbs.db alternatives.

But your suggestion helped me find the code I need. PngBitmapDecoder. I thought I tried that earlier, but apparently not.
