Look closer. Your screen is made up of pixels.

How would I count pixels on the top image you posted? I don't see anything to count.

Magnify the image as necessary.

Hire some kid on your street to do it, preferably one that likes trains.

Open the image in a new window... Safari will tell you the size.

ctrl-click and choose 'view image' in FF.. same thing.

You've successfully convinced me that you're just a troll, or somebody's "joke account". I shall not attempt to help you any more.

OK. now that that's cleared up, let's carefully start posting images again. Being cautious not to get the thread locked. Sound good?

Yep. Does seem easy to trigger an overreaction from AKcrab. Back to the train pictures? We've derailed the thread.

I thought you were an "Experienced Mac User" ?

What's your definition of experienced ? You know what a n00b is ?

Well, I'm no idiot. I've been using Macs for several years and am pretty good at them. I had just never bothered to find out how many pixels an image is.
