This callback has a counter, and i can see that the counter goes to 33, and quite slowly at that. Takes about 11 seconds to loop 33 times, and the other animations won't go until it stops.

Any idea as to why this is happening?

var counter1= 0;
$("#StartUpPosition div").not("#StartUpMainNode").fadeOut(300, function() {  
      $("#StartUpMainNode").animate( {left:22}, function() {   //animate the center node to the left
       counter1++;
 $("#NodeMain").fadeIn(200); 
 console.log(counter1);
 });
});

Hello sabinmash,

What is the starting left position of the DIV you are moving? You are moving it to position 22 so it sounds like it starts 33 away from that (at 55) which is what causes the loop to trigger that many times.
