Images not loading on website

Question

The problem I have is that when the page is loaded sometimes it displays all the images, sometimes just 2 images and sometimes all. I don´t know why this is happening.

Any ideas?

    $('#banners .box img').each(function(index){
        var randval = (index+1)*100;
        var _this = $(this)
        setTimeout(function(){
            _this.attr('id' , 'banner' + index);
            to_canvas('banner' + index, 300, 223);
        }, randval)
    });

to_canvas function:

    function to_canvas(im,w,h){
        var canvas;
        var imageBottom;
        var im_w = w;
        var im_h = h;
        var imgData;
        var pix;
        var pixcount = 0;
        var paintrow = 0;
        var multiplyColor = [70, 116, 145];
        var x_offset = Math.floor(($('#'+im).attr('width') - im_w)/2);
        var y_offset = Math.floor(($('#'+im).attr('height') - im_h)/2);
        imageBottom = document.getElementById(im);
        canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
        canvas.width = im_w;
        canvas.height = im_h;
        imageBottom.parentNode.insertBefore(canvas, imageBottom);
        ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
        ctx.drawImage(imageBottom, -x_offset , -y_offset);
        imgData = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
        pix = imgData.data;
        for (var i = 0 ; i < pix.length; i += 4) {
            if(pixcount > im_w - (im_h - paintrow) ){
                pix[i  ] = multiply(multiplyColor[0], pix[i  ]);
                pix[i+1] = multiply(multiplyColor[1], pix[i+1]);
                pix[i+2] = multiply(multiplyColor[2], pix[i+2]);
            }
            if(pixcount < im_w-1){
                pixcount++;
            }else{
                paintrow++;
                pixcount = 0;
            }
        }
        ctx.putImageData(imgData, 0, 0);
        $('#'+im).remove();
    }
    function multiply(topValue, bottomValue){
        return topValue * bottomValue / 255;
    }

I'm using the canvas function to add a triangle with multiply effect (like Photoshop).

Make sure the images are loaded :

$('#banners .box img').each(function(index, elem){
    var randval = (index+1)*100,
           self = this,
            img = new Image();    // create image object

    img.onload = function() {     // wait until it's loaded
        setTimeout(function(){
            self.id = 'banner' + index;
            to_canvas('banner' + index, 300, 223);
        }, randval)
    }
    img.src = elem.src;          // set source to same as elem
});

Wrap it all in this code to make sure the images are loaded before you execute your script. When you initially load your page, it caches the images(stores them in temp memory), but not before all your elements are rendered. When you reload, it reads the images from the cache–which is much faster than refetching the images again from the server–and therefore the images load about the same time everything else does. This results in visible images.

Like I said, to get your page to work, make sure everything is loaded, then run your script.

$(window).load(function(){
    ...your scripts(you can exclude functions definitions from this scope)
}
