I haven't read that "More on CSS" chapter yet, but to center images 
both vertically and horizontally you can assign each image as a 
background image for a specific div, and declare "background-position: 
center". If you want the images to be links, you'll need to specify 
"cursor: hand" to get Windows IE6 to play nice.
