	Images could really be valuable - depends on the focus of the 
site. I'd counsel you not to dismiss the idea, without careful 
consideration of what you want to do with the site and WHO your 
audience is.
	While YOU might not see the need for images, your potential 
audience might. This woman's feedback could be a bellwether for you.
