Generally speaking, I do everything I can to avoid images in content. Simple text is easier, more maintainable, more accessible and, for added incentive, I'm a spectacularly inept designer. Predictably, though, there's always an exception. When an exception arises and I have to use an image, I still want the markup to be semantic and accessible.

The technique I use isn't revolutionary or even new, but I don't see it used very much where I work, so I thought I'd write it down. Who knows? Maybe it's less common than I've been assuming it is.
