G'day
Is the <img> tag still widly used among list members. Should
we put as many of the images we can in the css as backgrounds etc.
Right now i put most sitewide images in the css and the page by page content
in with the <img> tag.
My approach is (generally) that purely decorative images should ideally go in the css as backgrounds.
Images with meaning (e.g. photos of products, mugshots of staff, graphs, etc)
should be placed in the (x)html via the img element, with appropriate alt
attribute.
But I am only speaking for myself - others may have a different
approach/opinion.
Regards
