I think you can use CSS to do that job.
To replace all buttons with image, add following to .button field (Main CSS)
HTML Code:
width: 75px;
height: 15px;
margin: 0;
border: 0;
background: transparent url(images/path/button.gif) no-repeat;
adjust width & height to your values
or to replace certain button, for example that one above
HTML Code:
<input type="submit" value="" style="width: 75px; height: 15px; margin: 0; border: 0; background: transparent url(images/path/button.gif) no-repeat;" />
