Cheers for this bud, but a blanket style like this (something as layout-changing as display:block;) could prove a little unpredictable. It's a little inexplicit and and could require overriding later on. It's akin to the ul,ol{ list-style:none } reset; a little too much of a blanket that becomes a pain if/when it needs undoing…

Most images that aren't inside inline elements will be treated with floats which carries implied block anyway, which will achieve just this but only in the right circumstances…

Yeah good point.
