Tell you what: I'm probably the Nineties user. That GIF annoys me
because it does not allow me to look at stuff as long as I need. I'd
probably have a similar problem with a "Slider" (which presumably adds
animation to the image flipping). A slow conveyor-belt like appearance
would likely annoy me less (basically having _only_ animation) but it
still does not beat a statical page for me where _I_ am doing the
scrolling and determining the flow of presentation.
