A-ha, that's what I was missing.  I'll give that a whirl.

It actually saves a lot of bytes when you there are background images that 
are no longer needed for different builds; or when you need different 
images depending on the build; etc.  For a small downloadable game, the 
difference betwee 2MB and 1.5MB is fairly significant.
