no.

but i'll yell cause french templates in CVS should no more use any image.

All are replaced by a text button with the "button" class. (in tmpl 
directory/includes/common-style.css. Will be heavily modified in a few 
hours, maybe minuts :-) )
If there are some images, then we have a problem...

note : auto generating an image is really time consumming. And with a 
good style sheet you can have the same result.
