Anddddd...what is Hitch gonna say? (WWHD?)

SVG does not work for older Kindle devices, so if you go that route, you gotta use JPG or PNG or GIF tables as the fallbacks, with hidden.

Just a heads' up for poor victims that haven't tried this yet. As this is the workshop, I didn't want to presume that we were discussing ePUB format only.
