If you include the size attributes then the browser can draw in the
"placeholder" box before the image is done loading.
Without the placeholder box, some browsers close up the space and then
"pop" it back open when the image finishes loading (making your page
text jump around as images load); and I believe other browsers simply
don't show any of the page until such graphics are done loading.
In other words, if you include them your page will appear to load
faster.
