How can I do this?

Question

How can I determine the number of pixels contained in a picture I saved in my computer?

Answer 1

Right Click on the picture, then click properties. THen click the "Summary" tab near the top left

Answer 2

In Windows Explorer, right click on the picture and select properties, this will bring up a dialogue box with three tabs. Select the tab called "Summary." In the Summary tab, click on "Advanced" button (unless it already is in advanced mode). This box should give you the width and height pixel information. Multiply the two number to get the total number of pixels.

Of course, if you have a software similar to Photoshop, you can also go under Image - Image Size, which will show the X and Y number of pixels. You can also change the pixel count by chaning the dimensions.

Answer 3

Depending on the type of computer you have, and the software on your computer... What you will be doing is opening the picture file using image display/editing software. Like Paint, or Paint Shop Pro, Corel, Aperture, or whatever image software you have on your computer.
After you open the file in the software, look for the image 'properties' or 'attributes', 'information' or 'detail', or something to that effect. It will most likely be under the 'File' tab. What youre looking for is the information about the image like the size, filetype,copyright, and dated information. Most of the time, along with that information in the height and width in pixels of the image.
Sometimes you can zoom in so far that the software will break the image into pixels - you could count them up and down and side to side, but I wouldnt recommend it.

Answer 4

By defualt, WinXP should show a small info box when you hover your mouse over a picture file. You should see:

"Dimensions: ### x ###"

The ### should be numbers. Thats how large the pic is in pixels. Multiply the first number by the second, and the result is the total number of pixels in your picture.

Answer 5

open it in paint and then at the top go to attributes
