In theory, !important should trump any other CSS rule of equal or lower specificity, but be overridden by CSS of higher specificity. Thus, an !important style on "body p img" will overrule any conflicting style on "p img" or "body a img" but will submit to "body p a img" or "body p img.special" (both more specific). Given that the image in question is assigned the ID of "x", rules applied to "#x" should trump everything else, as an ID-level rule is as specific as it's possible to get.

That's from memory, as I try to structure my CSS so that it cascades properly without relying on !important, but I'm reasonably confident that it's right.
