Yeah, it looks pretty ambiguous. I'll see if I can't make it more clear. Thanks!

I always wondered if this story had something to say about spring fever: "In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war...".

David got spring fever.

Alternatively, you could disable Cufon, but that's no fun.

The problem isn't in the CSS.
cufon-yui.js that you use to apply custom fonts, has a 10ms timeout built in because of their own problems with rendering custom fonts on a document that is potentially unready. This, in turn, screws up GASlider, which fires at the same time as Cufon.replace(). When GASlider does its math, it's grabbing heights, padding, etc *before* cufon does its font replacement. This make the first slide of an incorrect height because cufon changes everything after GASlider does its math. This is remedied by the time the first slide rolls around again because GASlider re-calculates the correct height.

To fix (a tad hackish, I know, but until Cufon adds callback function capability or gets rid of the 10ms delay, this will have to do):
Replace:
jQuery('#slider-holder').GASlider(
{
sfade : false, // Slide Fade
cfade : true, // content Fade
offset : 40, // Padding offset
speed: 500,
timeout: 6000,
content_speed: 1000}
);

With:
setTimeout("jQuery('#slider-holder').GASlider({sfade : false,cfade : true,offset : 40,speed: 500,timeout: 6000,content_speed: 1000})",11);});

This will trigger GASlider 1ms after cufon.replace() so cufon has time to do its replacement before GASlider needs to do its math.

Thanks for the response. I'm increasingly impressed with Comcast's new media outreach team.
