a Mac using a display of millions of colours (in Safari) renders the images in the main grey panel differently, thus creating a visible line on either side of the content. Whereas on PC it is seamless.
It happens only in Safari on my Mac. Omniweb, which uses nearly the same rendering engine doesn't show the problem. And Firefox of IE or Opera7.5 are perfectly fine.
With Omniweb, I can enable or disable the use of ColorSync, it doesn't make any difference on your site (images aren't coded to use Colorsync, it shouldn't make any difference anyway).
Safari has serious problems with display of colours in images. It is really bad with PNG files - try to match a flat coloured 32bit PNG to the same HTML colour set in the stylesheets.... it can be ugly, the images are on average 10% darker.
The only advice I can give: use all the same format - either jpeg or gif, don't mix in an environment as yours.
