Hi Chris,

CSS is indeed applied once the HTML document has been rendered to the page,
but so is alot of JavaScript which can still be read by screen readers.
Hence my query about inserting images into the design using CSS content
property ... do screen readers consider such content to be read out? Or
simply ignored as presentational content?
