One more benefit from using the <IMG> tag is related to SEO - i.e. you can provide additional information about the image in the ALT attribute of the image tag, while there's no way to provide such information when specifying the image through CSS and in that case only the image file name may be indexed by search engines. The ALT attribute definitely gives the <IMG> tag SEO advantage over the CSS approach. That's why according to me it is better to specify the images you want to rank well in the image search results (e.g. Google Image Search) using the <IMG> tag.

IMG首先加载，因为src是在html文件本身，而在背景图片的情况下，源是在样式表中提到的，所以图片在样式表加载后加载，延迟了网页的加载。

我想再补充两个论点:

An img tag is good if you need to resize the image. E.g. if the original image is 100px by 100 px, and you want it to be 80px by 80px, you can set the CSS width and height of the img tag. I don't know of any good way to do this using background-image. EDIT: This can now also be done with a background-image, using the background-size CSS3 attribute. Using background-image is good when you need to dynamically switch between sprites. E.g. if you have a button image, and you want a separate image displayed when the cursor is hovering over the element, you can use a background image containing both the normal and hover sprites, and dynamically change the background-position.

前景= img。

Background = CSS背景。

在多个皮肤或设计版本的情况下使用CSS背景图像。Javascript可以用来动态地改变一个元素的类，这将迫使它呈现不同的图像。如果使用IMG标签，可能会更加棘手。

一个小的输入， 我曾经遇到过响应式图像在iphone上的渲染速度减慢长达一分钟的问题，即使是小图像:

<!-- Was super slow -->
<div class="stuff">
    <img src=".." width="100%" />
</div>

但是当切换到使用背景图像时，这个问题就消失了，这只有在针对较新的浏览器时才可行。
