image rotate fade...

i'm in the process of building this site...do you guys see the testimonials fading in and out? how do i make that stay a little bit longer so that viewer can read the testimonial before it starts fading out?

the site is http://studio9designs.org/exceedingc...ons/index.html

thanks!

code problems should be in the coding forum.

unless you want to discuss how the fade and timings impact the usability of the page try asking in the coding forum.
