java conversion question

Question

I am converting the following code from java to c#: source = new MemoryImageSource(width, height, pixel, 0, width); source.setAnimated(true); toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(); image = toolkit.createImage(source); I am having a problem with the following code: BinaryFormatter b = new BinaryFormatter(); System.IO.MemoryStream istream = new System.IO.MemoryStream(); b.Serialize(istream, pixel); image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(istream); I get the error "Invalid Parameter Used." when trying to use the fromstream method. What am I doing wrong?
