There are many converters on the internet that support png to rgb888 or jpg to rgb888.

Just use google.

Make an array of unsigned bytes 1280*720*3 elements long named "imageptr". Each pixel is represented by 3 bytes, first the R value, then G value, then B value. Every 3840 bytes represent one row starting from the top of the image.

thanks
