I am currently on the 1st page for a keyword for one of the pages on my site. The page contains a keyword-rich article as well as images. I am wondering if I use CSS "display:none" on the text, if spiders will still crawl the text and if it will affect my rankings negatively at all.

Will hiding text using CSS affect my rankings?

Google's robots are actually intelligent, they're getting smarter and smarter. Don't mess with Google or they'll shut your business down off Google.
