[SOLVED] Image in widget works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox but will not display in IE

Hello,

I am just finishing up a new blog using this theme--which is amazing. However I am having one problem. I used a few text box widgets to insert images into my side bar. These images are links that go to other pages on the site.

Here is one example of the html I am using:

The website is http://paulgieleghem.com

Everything works fine when I view the page in Chrome, Safari or Firefox, but the images do not display when I view the page in IE. There is no broken link, nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
