To all of the above, yes.  I'm not sure if I can give a direct link to the 
site, though, since it's still under development and under wraps.  I did the 
styling myself, and I'm trying to figure out a way around this bug.

I've seen it on multiple projects; it seems to crop up any time I try to use a 
group of images contained in divs with displays of inline-block.  I suspect 
IE8's inline-block support is not as good as Microsoft would have people 
believe.
