This isn't, IMO, the best approach. The reason is simple: your
content is in the CSS, not in the page. What you're showing in your
content is the frame, for every image, the style you add gives the
actual image. This simply doesn't sound right.

Yet another reason not to use it: PNG images don't work in IE6 (and,
although we all regret this, IE6 is still the dominant browser in the
real world).
