The best way is:

For every image that is not purely cosmetic:

- add an ALT tag so that the browser user can work out what the image would be;

- wrap the <IMG> in <A HREF="-----.gif">....</A>, obviously using the image
  file name;

- FOR ALL BROWSERS: replace the image in the <IMG> by a small thumbnail image.

For cosmetic images:

- if they are pure noise in text, use ALT=""

- otherwise use an ALT= string that scans properly when read in pure text.
