I don't want the images as content.

The way I'm looking at it is that { font-weight: bold; color: #f00; }
is not really any different in theory than { background: #fff
url(red-bold-text.gif); }

Both are formatting of content that's already in the HTML.

And I'm using a check for images (from ppk) that makes sure I don't
fail when images are off - I am assigning a body class of "images" and
using that to set my CSS image replacements.

I'd rather a visitor without images on see a CSS-styled headline than
a missing image with alt text any day; that's why I'm having this
discussion with my colleagues at work. I really don't want to have to
start writing <h1><img src="image" alt="headline text"></h1> when I
could just write <h1>headline text</h1> and apply a text image
replacement in CSS, but I think that's the direction I'm being
encouraged to follow.

A background image with ACTUAL text on top is not an option, as the
text has to be graphical to be pretty.
