Fixed! Now the preloader works correctly even in Opera 9. Before only IE7 and FF were calculating the width correctly.
On that page: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/displayimg.html i discovered (we really never end learning) that when image has display: none or is inside an element with display: none (my exact case, the UL was set to display: none; and then to "block" when images were fully downloaded), the browser may opt not to download the image until the display is set to another value (eg: block). And infact Opera 9 does not download an image if that image is inside a container "not showed". And that caused the rendering problem, since the galleries rely on image width() to size correctly their 'mask' contanier. So for my preload i just moved the list with images with a temporary class to -999em to the left, and then, when document IS ready (images downloaded) i remove that temporary class and apply the correct CSS class wich of course is set to left: 0; And it does the trick!
