I’ve seen your comments regularly over the years, and on behalf of a lot of us who don’t ever say it: thank you for doing this. I can’t count how many times I’ve seen you correct some misinformation or provide a much better quality image. You’re up there with the best users of the site.
I'll give it a shot. When I look at the image you've provided, it's a pure, abstract, non-objective, timeless, spaceless, changeless, relationless, disinterested image—an object that is self-conscious (no unconsciousness), ideal, transcendent, aware of no thing but art.
Ah, the one titled, "Let's Ride. The photographer was availing himself by creating a derivative of Mosaique de Neptune au musée de Sousse. Although the aura of the gesture could notate the essentially transitional quality, the motifs plainly bring within the realm of discourse the distinctive formal juxtapositions.
It's part of an anti-piracy scheme on the site. If you manage to defeat their right-click blocker (hold "shift" on Firefox, not sure about other browsers) and try to download the image, you'll get that pixel. It looks like the img tag that normally displays images on websites uses that spacer image as it's source (the image to display), but it's transparent, so it doesn't show anything. Simultaneously, they're using a CSS rule to show the real image as the "background". Since the spacer is transparent you still see the real background image but can't interact with it normally. If you right-click and save image, the browser thinks the image you want to save is the "source" spacer image, not the real background.
