Get the code from the Matt Gallagher Cocoa With Love site. Go to the section: "Handling Base64 on the iPhone", "Decoding Base64".

Turn in a bug report to Apple requesting base64 support be added, I have, the more the better chance Apple will add it to the SDKs.

[NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url] expects to be given a file: URL that points to a file on disk with the given image in a format that UIImage (actually, Core Graphics) knows how to open.

You already have the image data stored in base64String, so you should be able to just grab the data from the string using dataUsingEncoding.
