The colon (:) between the images and Mercurity.gif is used to denote which
resource from which resource directory to use.
For example, #{resource['css:example.css']} implies that there is a
directory structure like below.
/
+resources/
+css/
| |
| +example.css
|
+images/
The same would apply to images.

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even
though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who
neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight
that knows not victory nor defeat."
