I integrated the Bootstrap Carousel (http://getbootstrap.com/examples/carousel/) in my 'comingsoon' homepage: http://247tutors.net/comingsoon/index.html
If you wait for the page to fully load, you will see that the automated slide transitions are not aligning properly (problem occurring in Chrome and Firefox). Each new slide comes in at a level and then once slide/img is covering carousel, i.e., at the end of the slide transition, the slide drops down by ~10px.
Notice my carousel's side panels onHover, leave a gap of about the same amount of pixels at the bottom.
..Can't tell it the error is caused by the navbar css (although, I do have the carousel-style.css being pulled in on the index.html after all other relevant css files (thus, giving carousel-style.css precedent over the class & div settings), or possibly, the error stems from loginDropdown.css (http://247tutors.net/comingsoon/css/loginDropdown.css)..?

You have to remove the absolute positioning of the .carousel-inner > .item > img class on line 11 of your carousel-style.css style sheet. It should remove the skipping effect! ;)
