Creating Surface from 3D points

Hello! I am two days new to grasshopper and rhino, but have run into a problem that others have been unable to help me with. 

I have tried attaching the .gh file but it won't let me, so let me know if you need that to answer and i'll try and get it to you.

I created a grid of points and then moved them vertically based on a raster image reference using the brightness of the image to determine vector magnitude. Now all I want to do is connect those points with a surface. 

I already tried the "surface from points" command but it's asking me for the number of points in the "U " direction. I tried then entering numbers manually (u+1) but it still doesn't take.

Any help? Thanks a lot!

yes, looks like that worked well, thanks!

I do have one question...why the "or" at the end, with the surface from points component and the loft component?

Its just 2 ways to get a surface from these points. Which surface you use is up to you. I would prefere the Surface from points.
