Setting the img tag invisible would be pointless. Setting it to
display:none might be more appropriate but just as futile.

A text-only layout would/should be quite different than an imaged one which
strongly suggests that a different layout is needed. Also, what about
background images? Just make a different page and avoid the convolutions
of misapplied css.
