fadeIn and shuffle cycle plugin problems in IE

I am having a problem with IE. I have a fadeIn on a set of photos that are in a div that shuffles using the cycle plugin. I believe that the fadeIn effect is causing the problem because when I remove it, it works fine. The pictures that are fading in take the background color all the way down with them so the whole area disappears. Then when the div shuffles, it is visible behind the photo that is fading in.

If you want to see the problem, it is here:

Anyone encountered a problem like this before or have any suggestions?

Thanks
