Using min-height and the equivalent IE hacks works if you have a fixed
height for the thumbnails.  If you don't you'll end up with varying
amounts of whitespace at the end of each entry.  

Howev in doing lists like these my thumbnail heights have tended to
change, and I'm trying to minimise the values I need to remember to
alter every time I use this stuff :-)

Cheers,
Eric
