I wonder whether it's actually _useful_ to make images appear side by side 
if they are clearly separate links.

As far as I can see, both IE and Firefox put gaps between the images. This 
is natural since the <img> elements have blanks (whitespace) between them.

If you have <img ...> <img ...>, then the space between the tags is 
treated as character-level content, causing some spacing. It is not 
possible to predict or override this effect in CSS with accuracy. But if 
you remove the spaces, <img ...><img ...>, you can then set the spacing, 
by setting padding and margin properties for the img elements. (They are 
usually zero by default, but there are exceptions, so to make images sit 
side by side, set them to zero explicitly.)
