After looking everywhere including jqueryetc for a way to do an image swap that fades, but using the background images, I figured out a rough way to do it.
This is not a fully tested and final way of doing background image fading sequence but thought I would put it out as a potential way to do it. Hopefully it helps somebody looking for it.

Twitter’s EarlyBird deals. Watch the video about how Twitter is looking at making it’s savings and deal’s offering come alive.
If you are moving your website to a new host, but wondering about your SEO, then this video will give you an answer.
So it seems that there is nothing to worry about. As long as you are moving to a good host then the fact that you are changing your IP address should not make much difference for your ranking in search engines. If you are moving to a slower host however then that could make a difference.
The way to move hosts is the leave the old host up, while you change the dns to the new host that way the is limited interuption to the users.
