I have read many Thierry's pages that are done 
with sprites, and I have restyled them.  I have 
viewed them with no style, no images, my own 
background in many colors and more.  In short I 
tried to break them and couldn't.  The reason is 
that Thierry's "text equivalent" is part of the 
html.  I actually could have read his code, but I 
was lazy.

You need to provide a text equivalent.  That can 
be alt-text or other forms.  This looks like a 
case where we need a new sufficient technique for 
"short text equivalent".
