A page without images would have a very simple form and would not attract
people's attention.

However, images tend to make the page look nicer. That is why images are
used for links. Try watching the pages with Image Load Enabled. You'll see
that sites which use images smartly (http://www.aol.com/,
http://jmk.simplenet.com/prod/, http://www.2coolweb.com/, etc.) look much
much prettier.
