Flash to jQuery using animate

I am converting a flash design into javascript. Its the ball that moves around the screen and becomes the globe. I am using animate() function for it but its stoping for a small time period where ever a new animate() function comes so its not similar to the flash animation. Any better ideas for it?

Here is how I am rotating it through the screen:

 .animate({ opacity: 1 },"fast")
.animate({top:'230px', left:'175px'}, {duration:0})
.animate({top:'310px', left:'215px'}, {duration:500})
.animate({top:'360px', left:'237px'}, {duration:500})
.animate({top:'400px', left:'350px'}, {duration:500})

I have been and done that, and when it comes to smooth animation, browsers are still lacking that robustness. Anyway, have you tried queuing the animation sequence? This way, at least browser will not be over whelmed and you will see a better result? Here is a good read:
