What kind of capital gain counts as income?

Do those dividends count as income?

--pretty much, though you report them in a different place

doesn;t matter what yuo do with it, either

=if you sell stock, the profit is capital gain, either short or long term

schedule D

Some of my stock pays dividends, and currently I have it set to re-invest those dividends. Do those dividends count as income? If I have those dividends deposited into my bank account will they count as income? If I sell some of my stock, does the total price I sell it at count as income, or just the profit? Thanks so much!
