There are clear advantages and disadvantages to this approach. + See [Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme) for more details. + NOTE: Neither IE6 nor IE7 support this feature. + ### Configuration * **Asset Hosts**. You can now configure the asset host(s) used for images via the image_url() function.
