Well I believe you are wrong here. Check this out <http://www.gic.nl/>. It was
posted as a comment in a relevant article of alistapart. The designer uses ems
for the images as well and he indeed gets the effect you want.
I don't know if this is the website Stephen was talking about, but its the best
example em usage i've ever seen.
Regards,
Panagiotis
