"Picture" vs. "Image" ???

0I would like to say a picture consists of many images. The image of you is the shape of you, does not include other things out of the shape.0-

00Both words have several meanings, and both can mean a visual likeness. Generally, a picture is one kind of image; a statue is another.0-

00In my opinion the difference between these two words is in the situations where they are being used....02br

Hi...The Digital format is called Images...
If It is Analog format it is picture

I'd say true to this distinction.

Both "image" and "picture" refer to physical or visual likenesses. BUT, "Imaging" has an additional verbal form that "picturing" does not. That is the transforming of data into an exact replica in different form, such as changing digital data to pixels for CRT display. "Picturing" doesn't include any definition like this.

So "image" could be

no

The "picture" is what you see... the "image" is what you remember. The "image" raises a question, delivers an answer, stimulates an emotion, or recreates a memory... and draws you look again.
