    Just to clarify…

    Karen,

    You current slider dimensions are 660px wide and 240px tall. If you make your images this dimension, they will fit perfectly in the slider.

    Your current image is only 196×198. Hence, the repeating.

    I used this post to find out the dimensions (thanks Josh and Prasanna) but I’m trying to do what karenhy did with her slider and can’t figuire it out.

    If I put the fullsize image (at 660×240) into a post I get a white border at top and left (see http://www.emosconsultingllc.com ). I’ve tried it in post, as featured image and as custom URL. I’m trying to use the slider like banners instead of informational posts.

    I’m sure this is just a combination of the options avaialable to me but I think I’ve clicked too many buttons. Thanks for any advice.

    When I click your link, I get a “Server not Found” error.

    Sorry about that. The frustration turned into fat fingers. The link is http://www.emoconsultingllc.com. I’ve been investigating more and looking at karenhy’s source code (Karen sorry to be so nosey). I have the white edge removed by choosing “background and excerpt” as “Slider Display Style” but then I can’t see how to remove the tinted box and view full post button.

    I like the way her slider looks but now realize that I can’t use it for multiple messages if I use custom url. Any way, that’s enough for now. Don’t want to pile on too much. Thanks for your advice.

    No worries… Happens to us all 🙂

    Okay, to remove the tinted box and text, add this to your custom css:

    .full-sized .slider-entry-wrap {
    
display: none;
    
}
