Hello all. I had the same exact problem as this guy:
http://csscreator.com/node/28917
and the answer that someone provided worked great! However, we are using a propriatary CMS that is not giving me access to all the linked images. Therefor, I am still stuck looking for another solution where I only need to alter the CSS style sheet, and not the html code.
Any thoughts?
Basically, I turned on underline while hovering over links, which is great for text, but not so great for linked images. I created another class for linked images, but I can't access all of them to add an attribute.
Thanks, bowie

Wow, that page is too simple
Wow, that page is too simple to need all that js; not to mention asp.net's truly crappy sessions method. There are those beknighted souls, who being immune to the cognitive dissonance created by using a crappy language in a do it all for you IDE, just keep on turning that crap out. 
Well, got that off my chest while tweaking the nose of one of our regulars. 
Can you now point to a specific instance on the page, a link with image, and describe exactly what you want it to do?
cheers,

I never said .NET couldn't be used for evil. Q.E.D.
I'm not seeing the issue mentioned in the OP. Please clarify.

there is an aweful lot of
there is an aweful lot of crap in there, isn't there? As you can see, it's a by-product of the CMS people before me chose, the vendor they chose to develop the CMS with, and the recommended way to develop the CMS from the company. All in all, crap, it's true. But crap I have to live with.
So on that front page, you can hover over links, and see the underline. But hover over the facebook/twitter images in the lower right, and you will see some some underlines happening there, as well.

So, I'd like the underlines
So, I'd like the underlines to disappear. And not just for these images, but for all images that have this issue. If possible, an elegant way to handle this problem now, rather than continually modifying the css file, as I happen upon individual images that are linked and behave the same way.

This has nothing to do with
This has nothing to do with the images; the underline is on the a element. See http://www.aapa.org/css/aapa.css line 33.
Rather than treat individual instances, the best I can offer (without your rewriting the template) is to set a {text-decoration: none;} contextually. For example,
#connected a { text-decoration: none; }
If you select .home-right a, you'll include text links, so choose your contexts carefully.
Side-note: That global reset is a waste of bits; see my arguments here, Global resets considered harmful , in comment #3.

alright then. on the global reset. Again, not my doing. But before I simply take it away, is there anything else I would need to do, to compensate? (Tired today, and brain not working on all cylinders.)

It will probably cause no
It will probably cause no issues, but like for any other global change you make, be sure to check.
