I like the design as well, but I think you're missing a bit of css
potential. Instead of putting the fade onto your images, use a background
image with alpha transparent png that sits on top of the image. The image
would be solid on the outside, transparent square in the middle and have the
fade transition. 

For IE6, I would suggest sending a different background image via
conditional comment that uses index transparent gif.  But remember, IE7 is
on the horizon and allows full alpha transparent png support.  We need to
start thinking about the future and not locking our pages into 2005/IE6 era.

That would allow you to load new images without the photoshop work. If you
put it as a div ontop of your image, it would even do a bit to protect from
people right clicking and saving the image. Of course, they could always
disable styles and do it that way.

Maybe give © a shot instead of © ... not certain, but it may
help. Love the design, by the way.
