SOLVED: Does a <noscript> fall back for lazy-loaded images cause my site to slow down?

If I add a <noscript> fall back for my lazy loaded images, will the webpage try to load the images even if javascript is not disabled?

If you have sources to back up what you are saying, I would greatly apprciate it, as I don't simply want to 'display:none' on the images :)

As it turns out, it does not. I used firebug to change the containing 'noscripT' to a 'div' tag. The only thing that was rendered after doing so, was this line of html:

Problem solved :)
