HTML 5 strange img always adds 3px margin at bottom [duplicate]

This problem is caused by the image behaving like a character of text (and so leaving a space below it where the hanging part of a “y” or “g” would go), and is solved by using the vertical-align CSS property to indicate that no such space is needed. Almost any value of vertical-align will do; I’m fond of middle, personally.

img {
    vertical-align: middle;
}
