It was deprecated in version 1.2 and removed in version 1.3.

From the jQuery selector documentation

Note: In jQuery 1.3 [@attr] style selectors were removed (they were previously deprecated in jQuery 1.2). Simply remove the '@' symbol from your selectors in order to make them work again.

It's an attribute selector that will find all <img> elements with a rel attribute equal to the value to the right of the = sign.

And yes, the @ portion was deprecated as of jQuery 1.2 and removed completely in 1.3. Now you'd just use "img[rel=...]".
