As I've been saying, if you do that, they will reload repeatedly
making the problem worse.  If the images are fluf, and the user knows
they are fluf, then *maybe* they won't reload, and your pages will
simply appear ugly.  But then you have to ask yourself, why am I
sending fluf images that degrades the overall user experience of my
application?  Clearly there's more optimization that could be done to
your application.
