How to internationalize (i18n) Drupal css for different languages

(this post is work in progress)

I needed to simply display a different hompage image based on the user language

add preprocess_page function to template.php

Disabled css optimization from the Drupal -> Site Configuration menu to allow reading of the theme styles, not the cached/compiled versions.

created a "/site/themes/MYTHEME/css/styles_en.css" and a "/site/themes/MYTHEME/css/styles_es.css"

uncommented the 'drupal_flush_all_caches()' function call to allow re-assessment of template.php and the new function changes

removed/commented the css background-image lines from styles.css and moved these clauses to the language specific css files
