  • Yes, it still downloads the image if you are using a `` tag. Now, if you choose to load the image from css `url('')` it will be downloaded only when showed – LcSalazar Dec 10 '14 at 18:59

Yes, display: none only hides it on the screen, the CSS does not stop the request from image being downloaded to client.
