Automatic Page opening

[nothingbutsound]

Hi there guys, Ive got a site live at the moment www.majorkeystudios.com when the site first loads up its just the background and the menu bar, then when clicked on the home button the home page appears, but i want that to happen automatically after 5-6 seconds so when first visiting the site the background opens and the menu bar then 5-6 seconds the home page loads, how would i do that?
Thanks for the help guys :0)

That would be javascripting ... post your question in that section.

FYI ...
I first saw a black screen with the "loading" gif progress bar.
That took about 15 seconds to do. At that point, unless I was
really interested in the site, I would have simply clicked my
back button and went to a different site.

My opinion ...
All of that "fluff" is going to turn away users.
And what happens when your site is opened with an iPad or smartphone?
That background image alone is so huge ... is it necessary?

People just want to see what they are about, and a phone number, or email.
Even a single-page site is all they need.

And every time I click the home button, I have to see the black screen again ... aarg!

Was gonna say... Took about 20 seconds ( which is about 16 seconds longer than I normally wait ), to load the main page ( or at least see something )... So it wasn't just me... Wary or saying that until I know it's not just me...

1. It won't load for me
2. mlseim is completely correct
3. Ill show you anyways

For clicking the homebutton

$('#homebutton').click(function(){
 $('#content').delay(5000).slideDown();
});

For after the page loads

$(document).ready(function(){
 $('#content').hide();
 $('#content').delay(5000).slideDown(); //slides down can do .show
});
