I think that the function is just meant as a way to generate an image
via a string, in lack of a better data format.
So the string is not a string of pixel values (pun inteded) but image
data stored in a string indstead of a file.
Your string would probably look a little like this:
"GIF89aEURÿÿÿ!ù¤&(¤&(g(/&dg;"
Well actually it wouldn't. But the general idea is that the string would
be how an image file like a gif would look like if opened in a text editor.
