Ok... another update for you. Your problem is definitely with your hosting service. I opened a window with tcpdump running with the command line:
tcpdump -i eth0 -s0 -X 'port 80'
Then I browsed to your page and found this interesting snippet in the tcpdump:
Code:

If you pardon the mess, you'll notice that your hosting service doesn't like for people to directly link to images, so if they see an HTTP request that doesn't have a "Referer:" field, they give you a 302 Redirect message which sends you to Google to download part of Google's logo. My guess is that some browsers fill in the "Referer:" field differently than others, thus creating your error that appears differently on different browsers.

In other words: get another server to host your site.
I wish to express my gratitude to the people of Italy. Thank you for inventing pizza.

the problem exists because the host does not allow deep linking from outside of the parent domain. the other end of this is that javascript image loaders do not use http_referer headers in some browsers.
sorry str34m3r...i had it up and open for awhile before submitting.

I think I understand this deep linking idea. But what I'm not sure of though is how this is related to _my_ site. All the images were originally situated within the same directory on the same host URL until the problems with image loading started. I then changed the paths of the images to full web URL's. The annoying thing is that it is a very intermittent problem, sometimes working fine and encountering no problems whatsoever.
I would be very grateful if anyone could expand on what deep linking really is and maybe hear what everyone thoughts are on this new web practice.
Thanks again.
