1.First add this CSS code before the ]]></b:skin> tag:

/* s3slider
----------------------------------------------- */
#s3slider {
background:#000000;
border:1px solid #818e8f;
width: 439px;
height: 200px;
position: relative; /* important */
overflow: hidden; /* important */
}

#s3sliderContent {
width: 439px; /* very improtant */
position: absolute; /* important */
top:-14px; /* important */
padding: 0px;
margin-left: 0; /* important */
}

.s3sliderImage {
float: left; /* important */
position: relative; /* important */
display: none; /* important */
}
.s3sliderImage span {
position: absolute; /* important */
left: 0;
font: 20px Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;
padding: 10px 0px;
width: 439px;
background-color: #000;
filter: alpha(opacity=80); /* here you can set the opacity of box with text */
-moz-opacity: 0.8; /* here you can set the opacity of box with text */
-khtml-opacity: 0.8; /* here you can set the opacity of box with text */
opacity: 0.8; /* here you can set the opacity of box with text */
color: #fff;
display: none; /* important */
bottom: 0;
text-align:center;
}
.clear {
clear: both;
}

If you want to change the slide size, look at the width and height in #s3slider part, just change it!


2.What you have to do is downloading the file and you will see what you need:js file, ok now you have to upload it to your own host, I am using 110mb.com to host that file.

Next , add this code before the </head> tag :

<script src="http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="s3slider URl" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(document).ready(function() {
$(&#39;#s3slider&#39;).s3Slider({
timeOut: 4000
});
});
</script>

Notice the red code:
that's the place you need to paste the js file URl here.

3.Now Save it,create a HTML/Javascript and paste this code in it:

<div id="s3slider">
<ul id="s3sliderContent">
<li class="s3sliderImage">
<img src="image url 1"/>
<span>Description 1</span>
</li>
<li class="s3sliderImage">
<img src="image url 2"/>
<span>Description 2</span>
</li>
<li class="s3sliderImage">
<img src="image url 3"/>
<span>Description 3</span>
</li>
<div class="clear s3sliderImage"></div>
</ul>
</div>

Let's look at the pink code, that's the image URL and a short description.
