by overlapping 4px I never get any white space after 10 min of
looping. The IE hack is 2 fold. I need a wrapper div, and I also have
to use position:absolute;. In FF you can use position: relative; and
no wrapper, much cleaner. This is my first Jquery Script, so if there
is any advice/tips for improvement, I'm all ears. I should probably
make it all JS so I can auto detect the image size, ect...
