Selectors don't work properly in IE5 (does it work in IE6?), so I recommend
using a class and giving all the imgs that class if you want it to work in more
than Mozilla and maybe other browsers like Opera but not IE.

.block { display: block;}

<img class="block">

Another thing to note is that displaying an image as a block you will have
space under it just like text has. Although if block doesn't give you
everything you want, you might want to try display: table-cell.
