In that case, put the whole website in the CVS and keep the graphics light.  I 
just find the idea of maintaining two documents that should say exactly the 
same thing to be an unnecessary burden.  

I didn't realize things were still like that in Germany.  I do understand the 
problems of locations where the infrastructure is not ideal. I recall how it 
was back before Algore invented the Internet. ;-)  Thanks for reminding me 
how things are for others.  I guess we can become complacent in our 
technological isolation sometimes.
