WordPress is_home() not working as expected

I want icon-backtotop.png to appear only on the home page and icon-backtotop-alt.png to appear on all other pages. However, with the code below, icon-backtotop-alt.png shows on all pages. How can I fix this code?

<?php if (is_home()) { ?>
    <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/img/icon-backtotop.png" alt="Back To Top" />
<?php } else { ?>
    <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/img/icon-backtotop-alt.png" alt="Back To Top" />
<?php } ?>

you probably want to use is_front_page not is_home

Note: WordPress 2.1 handles this function differently than prior versions - See static Front Page. If you select a static Page as your frontpage (see is_front_page()), this tag will be applied to your "posts page".

try 

<?php if (is_front_page()) { ?>
    <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/img/icon-backtotop.png" alt="Back To Top" />
<?php } else { ?>
    <img src="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/img/icon-backtotop-alt.png" alt="Back To Top" />
<?php } ?>
