I have an integer array of RGB pixels that looks something like:

pixels[0] = <rgb-value of pixel(0,0)>
pixels[1] = <rgb-value of pixel(1,0)>
pixels[2] = <rgb-value of pixel(2,0)>
pixels[3] = <rgb-value of pixel(0,1)>
...etc...

And I'm trying to create a BufferedImage from it. I tried the following:

BufferedImage img = new BufferedImage(width, height, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
img.getRaster().setPixels(0, 0, width, height, pixels);

But the resulting image has problems with the color bands. The image is unclear and there are diagonal and horizontal lines through it.

What is the proper way to initialize the image with the rgb values?

thanks, Jeff
