There's nothing particularly special to do. Images are often their own 
"source code", so merely putting the image where someone can see it in 
a browser is often sufficient to meet the licensing terms. If you've 
used an svg image to create a png image, then the svg is the "source" 
for the png, and you may need to keep that svg image around for anyone 
who asks for it.

Somewhere on the site you should mention that the images are copyright 
by so-and-so and licensed under the LGPL. This notice shouldn't be 
hidden, but it needn't be extremely prominent either.
