So, when I started the
re-design of my studio website, I knew I would need sliders, but I didn't realize how many unconfigurable, and generally static sliders were out there. I must have gone through 5 iterations of sliders before I found one that matches my needs (and probably will be the go-to slider for any project I work on in the future)
Oh, permit me a side-note. I don't use wordpress. There are probably many, many more sliders customized specifically for wordpress, but in this case, I needed one that stands on its own feet.
I found
AnythingSlider, and it worked beautifully. I'd recommend taking a look if you need a really robust, and fairly customizable JS-based slider.
