Convert a string to a bitmap in c#

Question

I want to convert a string into a bitmap or something I can show in a pixelbox.

My string looks like this:

string rxstring = \"01001001002002002003003003

Upon continuing review, I realized that the string your getting isn't a byte array. This creates a square Bitmap and lets you set the values pixel by pixel.

List splitBytes = new List();
string byteString = "";
foreach (var chr in rsstring)
        {
            byteString += chr;

            if (byteString.Length == 3)
            {
                splitBytes.Add(byteString);
                byteString = "";
            }
        }

        var pixelCount = splitBytes.Count / 3;
        var numRows = pixelCount / 4;
        var numCols = pixelCount / 4;

        System.Drawing.Bitmap map = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(numRows, numCols);

        var curPixel = 0;
        for (int y = 0; y < numCols; y++)
        {
            for (int x = 0; x < numRows; x++ )
            {
                map.SetPixel(x, y, System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(
                    Convert.ToInt32(splitBytes[curPixel * 3]),
                    Convert.ToInt32(splitBytes[curPixel * 3 + 1]),
                    Convert.ToInt32(splitBytes[curPixel * 3 + 2])));

                curPixel++;
            }
        }
        //Do something with image

EDIT: Made corrections to the row/col iterations to match the image shown above.
