The capacity of a card indicates the maximum amount of data that can be stored (less some space for the card's own use).
Megapixel (MP) count refers to the maximum resolution of the camera's sensor -- its ability to record detail. The number of images that can be recorded on a card of a given size is only indirectly related to the capacity of the card, which is measured in Kilobytes (KB) or Megabytes (MB), not MP. That will vary according to the image itself, and to the camera's settings.
For example: My Pentax K10D, with a 10.1 MP sensor and using a 4 GB card, will record approximately 821 images at the highest resolution (10 MP) and a "Fine" resolution setting. The same camera, with the same sensor and same card, will record 10,000-plus images at the lowest resolution (2 MP) and the "Low" resolution setting. Practically all cameras have this ability to change the resolution settings, and thus the sizes of the image files that are stored on the card.
So, you can see that it is only possible to answer your question in very general terms: The higher the capacity of the card, the more images you can store at whatever camera settings. And, as you can see above, even at the highest settings with a high MP count, you can take a lot of pictures!
One thing to think about: storage cards can and do fail. It is better to have two 1 GB cards than one 2 GB card, unless you plan to shoot a whole lot of video. That way if one fails, you can keep shooting and worry about retrieving the images off the other card later.

You could probably expect roughly 1000 images at full resolution and minimum compression (often called "quality" in the camera software) on a 4 GB card. We are basing this on the performance of a Pentax K10D at 10.1 MP, which will record about 800 images at maximum quality.
Be sure that your camera will accept a 4 GB card. Some older cameras will not read them.

about 2000 pictures.
o.2 mp is the quality of the camera not memory, memory is stuff like 8gb and 1tb
About 42,000
It can hold and save about 10 hours of video, 1,750 songs and 10,000 pictures. It also has a front-facing camera, and a back camera.
10,000-12,000
1200
About 800 I think.
More than 5000.
Class 6 refers to the transfer rate. It depends on the megapixels the camera is taking.
as much as 8GB
That depends on the size of each picture.
I have an 8gig card in a 10 mp camera, and it held about 2200 pics, so probably somewhere around there. ~Scorpy~
