 Hey Michael..  I would suggest using div and
float to accomplish this.  Take a look at this page from a site I
coded:
 
 http://ladybrowncouture.com/celebs.html
 
Check out the grid image display, it's similar to what you're
after..  The relevant code is this:

<div
class="celebItem">
        <img
src="images/celebs/tichina_arnold.jpg"
width="127" height="163" /><br />
        <span class="captionText celebItemText">Designer
Deborah Brown
        and Everybody Hates Chris star, Tichina
Arnold</span>
</div>

I can't say the rest of
the site is made to CSS expert standards 
:-)  It was my first pure
CSS site...  But that part I think I
did correctly..
 
 The
relevant CSS applied to that is:

.celebItem {
 
float: left;
  width: 25%;
  text-align:
 
center;
  background-color: white;
}

.celebItemText
{
  font-size: 8pt;
 
font-weight: bold;
  color: #666666;
}

Make sure
at the end of all the floats you put this div:

<div
style="clear: both;"></div>

HTH
