Hey,
I'm trying to convert an Image object to a byte array then back to an Image (so that I can store the image in a blob object in an Apache Derby Database).
I can convert an Image to a byte array (code below) but I cann't convert the bytes back to an image. As a further complication I'm using J2ME, so I can't use javax.image.*. Can you help?
Thanks
