You need to browse the Graphics-File category, there you can found how the different formats are read/write from files to memory.
A better name for ColorForm should be IndexedColorForm: 8 bit index into a palette of colors, used also for 8 bit gray images. If you have RBG you need to use 32 (or 16) bit Forms.

If I understand ColorForm correctly, it uses a map and the image "pixels" are indexes into same. In this case, I would allocate a block of memory, hand it to a library, and it would blast the RGB values all over it. Do we have a ready way to use the result w/o having to loop over the individual values?

Sometimes (batches in particular), it makes sense to let the code that creates a graph save it, but I also like to do a lot of interactive plotting that should not have to hit the disk.
