Specifically for buttons. Will storing those images locally in the app (i.e. - in the images folder) still work? from what i know, an image_tag won't work in the .css file, because it's not rendered through erb - unless I use a almost-hacky approach like here: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/151312Thanks in advance, Nelson Hello,
