Description
For some kinds of taxonomy images it would be more effective to use sprites instead of image cache. The http://drupal.org/project/imageset module might offer integration with sprites (NOTE: I haven't tried it).
An example page of where sprites would be better than http://www.visitnorway.com/en/Product/?pid=38446 (look on the right hand side for the categories offered).

#1
What they did with the map of Norway is awesome (and really would fit well with Taxonomy List). I will have to have some time to download it and study the API. If someone wants, a patch would be welcome.
#2
For the module taxonomy_image support imageset as contrib the module taxonomy_imageset is added
While only for dev versions
#3
Have you tested it with TI?
#4
Not yet, I will try it out asap, but more pressing needs are at hand.
#5
It is high-grade did not test
The opportunity of a output of pictures with the help of the module imageset has been checked up
The revealed troubles
At manipulations with pictures in mysite/admin/content/taxonomy/taxonomy_image are output warnings
warning: getimagesize (imageset/xxxxxx:1) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in \home\pvb.ru\drupal6\sites\all\Modules\taxonomy_image\taxonomy_image.module on line 242.
As I use a path to a format imageset/<name>:<index>
One of variants to process this mistake in a code taxonomy_image
