pixel or pixels? 

Did the renamed cell, look like

  pixels = Show[Graphics[
   {AbsoluteThickness[1],GrayLevel[1],
   Polygon[{{4, 4},{148, 4},{148, 307},{4, 307},{4, 4}}],
   RasterArray[{{
      RGBColor[0.980392, 0.968627, 1],
      ... 
      }},
   {{4, 4}, {148, 307}}]}], 
   AspectRatio->2.10417,
   PlotRange->{{4, 148}, {4, 307}},
   ImageSize->{144, 303}]

or did it have Raster instead (this may be version dependent)?

This would happen if you named it pixel instead of pixels, or if you get 
a Raster object instead of a RasterArray.

Cheers,
