First… I love this theme!

Now.. I am having an issue where upon initial load, my front page slider images only load partially. About 15% of the image displays vertically and then the rest of the page loads. You can see the images changing, but you still only see about 15% of the image. When I reload the page, that usually solves the issue. This problem happens for me more than 50% of the time upon initial load of the page (with a clean browser cache).

I’ve sized the jpgs to 1200×514 at 72ppi. This happens for me in firefox and IE.

Website is http://www.pointnemo.pn

Help!!!

Thanks

Brandon

Wanted to post a followup image to show exactly what I’m seeing upon load. This is what the page looks like after loading is finished. I’m able to scroll up and down but the slider image remains only partially loaded.

@Brandon: When I check in your site. It’s loading fine. It’s just 2 second like that and slider changes after the image is loaded. You are try changing your Image Loader settings at “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Slider Settings”

I have seen this issue on my site as well.

@Sakin: instead of changing the overall Slider transition time, I think it would be better to implement a fast initial load time, so that the first image is loaded in the correct size as fast as possible.

@Thomas: That loading time depend on your server and cache. So, we don’t have control on that with theme. If you are using latest version, then we have added “Image Loader” setting at “Appearance => Customize => Featured Slider Options => Featured Slider Settings”.
