Okay, I know this is probably pretty basic, but....I am trying to put images in the content fader at the very top of the template and they are all blurry.  What is the correct size that the image needs to be to display properly?  Also is there a way to make the content fader smaller and the text underneath it?  I don't like how it takes up so much of the page.

Thanks,
Leslie

Hello,

You can upload any size image you want, generally you want it set to the same size that you set the height and width to in the module's backend. You can adjust the height in the module's backend, and there's a setting in the template configuration under the Template Specific tab.

Can you tell me the size of the image used on the first slide of all the people from Shutterbox?  I would like to purchase some of the images I just don't know which one to get.
Thanks,

Also, if I just one image to show how do I set it to just display one, and the text.  I tried in the module, but it doesn't stay on just one picture.

I feel like I am having a conversation with myself here lol!  So I figured out to get it to stay on one picture but I cant get rid of the "Open Gallery" tag at the top of the photo.  I tried to delete the text in the module and I save it but it still comes back, its like it is hard coded in there.
I also don't know how to adjust the photo so it doesn't chop off the guys head in the upper left hand corner.

My logo is squished and I need to make the top wider, can I do that and if so where?

Here is the link, thank you for all you help, you guys are great there, thats why I keep renewing with you.

Hello,

The pictures should be set to the exact size of the module in the backend. As long as you do this the picture will show the same on your local computer and in the module. Anything that gets "cropped" off would need to be fixed through adjusting the height and width of the module or by uploading a different size image.

You can turn the gallery off in the module's backend. If it's disabled the text won't show.

Okay, I can't get rid of the Open Gallery tag at the top???  Also the slider doesn't work well unless there are 3 photos in there.  Is that the default?  I would only like 2 but when I set it to two images the slider doesn't rotate correctly.

Any ideas??

Hello,

You can add it with css. Just add the following to the bottom of template.css:

.carouselContainer {
display:none !important;
}

It's currently showing images, but I don't see any issues. What issues are you seeing?

The images don't circulate clockwise. It goes from 1 -2, but then goes backwards, looks kinda strange to me....

Thank you for the snippet of code.  It made the "Open Gallery" tab go away Grin

Hello,

That is how it should circulate. It goes to the end and then it has to go back to the beginning. There's no other way to do it unfortunately.
