and generally speaking, [#store] is the equivalent of [pix_data].

You send to it the coords of the pixel you want, as a pair of numbers, or 
of the pixel component you want, using a triplet of numbers, or of the 
image row you want, as a list of a single number.

Or you can do any of these repeatedly with different position, by 
packaging several coordinates in a bigger message, as a package deal for 
getting several pixels at once. You can even make [#store] build a new 
picture for you by picking pixels like that... [#remap_image] is some kind 
of meta-abstraction based on that idea and on [#store].
