With X-Windows, standard Lynx supports graphics and sound with the aid of
external helper apps.

If you have an X-Windows server, you might also try XMosaic, Grail, Arena,
Lexicon, the KDE project's HTML widget (khtmlw), Chimera, Amaya, Viola,
Gnuscape Navigator (emacs-w3) on XEmacs or InfoDock, or the Hyper-G client
Harmony. If you want more information on any of these (URLs, etc.)  just
ask.

There are many other X-Windows web browsers but these are some of the
cooler (mostly-)free ones I've used. They can all be installed in an
individual user's account.

If you don't have X-Windows, how do you expect to see graphics? If you're
connecting to the shell account from a Windows box, you might try I-COMM
or SlipKnot, which use a copy of Lynx running on the UNIX box to actually
fetch the pages, but display them graphically in Windows. 

HTH.
