Portfolium theme slideshow issue

Hi,

I just started using Portfolium theme (WPShower) after using PhotoNexus, only because I wanted a cleaner look and it suits the type of work better (I hope…) – while Photonexus is fine I had a problem re slideshow loading which is not an issue on their demo site & which I was never able to resolve fully.

After switching to Portfolium, I noticed its slide show has the same problem – again not noticeable on their demo site, which is hosted on their own server.

Queries on their forums and elsewhere have led to a blind alley.

Basically, adding galleries and slideshows is not a problem, but when they display (ie after you open the page) images will load in a vertical stack for a beat, before settling into the expected slideshow, as per their demo site – this was the same for both themes.

I’m trying to establish if this is a javascript issue or a server issue – any help would be appreciated, since it spoils a good design & just looks like a coding error.
