That's precisely the point, Boanne - in all those "graphical" browsers
this just turns off the pixel *presentation* of all sorts of inserts
but still does not avoid downloading all those tagged files of
wallpapers and other highly relevant "information".
(Test: dorwnload some URLs with "images turned off", cut the line, run
those pages from the cache with "images on": and they are all there.)

This though is what costs time, and connection fees.

Genuine text browsers, like the Lynxes, wouldn't do that (but still
allow to download the embedded "objects" explicitely, and separately).
