It sounds like you are not successfully returning to the card with no image, or the image is on BOTH cards. (or the image is part of a group with its backgrounbehavior set to true which has caused that group to be on both cards)
If you successfully switch from a card with an image to a card without an image, the image shouldn't be visible no matter how its layered. So it must be one of the above scenarios. Wait, 1 more possibility. If you're displaying the image using a revbrowser object then THAT control is an overlay so you'd need to use revbrowserset browserId,"visible",false when you switch to a card where the image (browser) shouldn't show.
