Is there a way to remove the pause between the images in my JavaScript/jQuery slideshow when fading in and out? I attempted using a small delay, but it still didn't eliminate the blank space. Any suggestions?
Check out the code on jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/jzhang172/s624zn7d/1/
var imagesArray = ["http://assets.pokemon.com/assets/cms2/img/pokedex/full//007.png",

function preloadImg(pictureUrls, callback) {
var i, j, loaded = 0;
var imagesArray = [];
for (i = 0, j = pictureUrls.length; i < j; i++) {
imagesArray.push(new Image());
}
for (i = 0, j = pictureUrls.length; i < j; i++) {
(function (img, src) {
img.onload = function () {
if (++loaded == pictureUrls.length && callback) {
callback(imagesArray);
}
};
img.src = src;
}(imagesArray[i], pictureUrls[i]));
}
};
function roll(imagesArray, currentPos){
var slide = $('.parallax-mirror').find('img').attr('src', imagesArray[currentPos].src);
slide.fadeIn(2000, function() {
slide.fadeOut(1500, function() {
currentPos++;
if(currentPos >= imagesArray.length){
currentPos = 0;
}
roll(imagesArray, currentPos);
});
});
}
$(function () {
preloadImg(imagesArray, function (imagesArray) {
roll(imagesArray, 0, 3);
});
