Jquery delay() function

Question

I have some jquery and am trying to apply a delay to it but can\'t seem to get it to work.

The current jquery is as follows...

image.css({\"visibilit

.delay() is not only for animations.

It's for anything in a queue.

image.delay(800)
     .queue(function( nxt ) {
         $(this).css({"visibility":"hidden"}).removeClass("image-background");
         nxt(); // continue the queue
     });
