Finished my website, one little problem. Image slider is choppy.

    I found a free image slider and edited it into a website. I have elementary knowledge of html/css.
    Whenever I go on the website it first loads very choppy. (the images in the slider slowly load from the top down in chunks)
    I tried reducing the resolution of the images but that didn't work. What do I do?

    What are the sizes of the images, and how many is it loading?

    Image size:
    1500 X 600 pixels
    20.833 inches X 8.33 inches at 72 pixels/inch

    I reduced them and checked the website but it did not fix the problem so I went back to the original size.
    There are a total of five images

    Karen - it works much better on internet explorer, the issue is mainly on safari

    Did you check the size of the images? .. also the image format is important (png,jpg,bmp) , for example if your images are BMP the file will have a large size!

    My advise is to check the picture format!

    Cheers!
