PNG Issue - Alpha channel works fine ONCE LOADED but if animating, I can see artifacts where there are shadows?

PNG Issue - Alpha channel works fine ONCE LOADED but if animating, I can see artifacts where there are shadows?

Hello all. I have searched forever online and am only finding partial fixes.

I have several pngs, some with drop shadows, some with no shadow and are simply graphics of text.

The alpha channels ARE working in IE7/8 but if I attempt to animate the PNGs' opacity, I can see black artifacts before it reaches it's final opacity value.

You can see this here (in the link "WORK" or when clicking the dots under the work collages):


I did find a post within here (jquery.com forum) which provides a fix for a similar issue but it explicitly reads that it will ONLY work in IE6.

Thanks for your help!
