Image Distortion in Internet Explorer

For some reason when you open our site up in older versions of Internet Explorer, the images are all really tiny until you roll over them, then they jump up to normal size. Then our client emailed us to say she is using IE 7 with Vista and it's doing the same thing. We're running IE 7 with Vista here in the office and we don't get those image errors, although we do have some weird margin issues. I have no idea how to fix this or where to even look. Any ideas?

Re: Image Distortion in Internet Explorer

The only image I saw do something funky was when I clicked the Shop Now button and the guy shrunk up then stretched to normal. I don't know, but I haven't seen may images formated like:
<img class="shop" width="30%" height="30%" align="right" src="images/man_standing.jpg" />
..with percentages. I assume as the page loads, it is correct in making the image smaller (30% of the size of the screen), then larger as the page loads.. But I don't know this for certain... Personally, I'd give my images true sizes and not percentages...

Re: Image Distortion in Internet Explorer

That's the only image I formatted that way - this website has basically been a "get it up as fast as you can" kind of project - that's why the whole site is images, etc. But the images inside the shopping cart are acting funky too, but that should be controlled by the stylesheet? Right now the height and width for images are set to auto - I tried setting it to 100% or not putting it any values at all and the images showed up very distorted both ways in every browser

Re: Image Distortion in Internet Explorer

Hmm... I've gone through and the only image that's funky is the one I've mentioned... I am using:
Firefox 3.0
IE 7
Opera 9.27
Netscaope 8.0

I am not seeing it... sorry
Anyone else out there see what is being talked about?

Re: Image Distortion in Internet Explorer

Is there a way to specify different styles on the stylesheet for the category images and the product images? That I think would allow me to fix the problem
