will or will not make a difference - ensuring your images have alt/title
attributes is a must.

It is perhaps worth considering an image replacement techniques if you are
thinking of doing this, especially as part of a page/menu template - that
way you have can have nice, clean, search able, accessible markup and also
if you consolidating all the images in a CSS Sprite, you also get a file
size/load time saving.
