Hello Thierry, Setting aside the debate "should we or should we not use IR techniques", I might have not expressed myself correctly in my post.
I understand the method and its benefits. I was just stressing that: 1. Problems remain if a user can display images and bumps up font size (either the text shows through (unless you are willing to use extra large images to account for worst case scenario), or the image becomes blurry, even if you specify its size using relative units like you do in another example). Some users I know must increase their font-size to 500% to be able to read. 2. Even if anchors are used instead of images, since take into account the css on/img off scenario, you have a problem if you want to use transparent / partially transparent images to replace your text, since your text must be hidden "under" the image. Having that said, your method is indeed interesting in many aspects. Thanks for making it available.
