I'm not sure why you care what it looks like internally, you can use indexing to access the pixels and you can iterate over them. What more do you need? The indexing will be one dimensional since the help page told you that the data was flattened. Thus 123 456 789 becomes 123456789 But mostly you won't care because you can iterate over the list using a standard for loop. And as ever in Python the easiest way to find out how things work is just to try it in the interpreter. Use a small bitmap (16x16 say?) and load it into a PIL image, use getdata and see what it looks like when you index it, iterate over it and print it. Working with the interpreter can eliminate most uncertainties when working with Python.
