## Description

SliceShow plugin for WordPress allows you to very quickly and easily create beautiful
slide shows on your site. You can add titles and links that will overlay the images
in your slideshow. You can create as many slideshows as you’d like and easily embed
those into your posts and pages using the `[sliceshow id="1"]` shortcode or directly
in your templates using the php function `<?php if( function_exists( 'sliceshow_slideshow')){
sliceshow_slideshow( 1 ); } ?>`

Slideshows are responsive as well, so they will scale from desktop to tablet to 
mobile sizes, automatically. Alternately you can define a custom size for your slideshow
using “fixed” pizel sizes, which is great for those times when you need a slideshow
to always be a specific size.

Uploaded images are also automatically resized via php to optimize the loading times
of your slideshow. No need to worry about your clients uploading 4000 pixel wide
images and slowing down their site!

**Note: this is the free version of SliceShow. If you’d like more features and access
to support, please consider purchasing [SliceShow Pro](http://plugins.slicenpress.com/sliceshow/)**
