Customization:
Code 1. You can change the background colors in code 1 to suit your blog.
Code 2. First of all download at
http://sites.google.com/site/freeblo...ow.1.2.auto.js and upload it to google sites.
You can change width, height and duration speed.
Code 3. As you look on code 3 there are 3 slide codes. First give the image link, add title and finally add description. Do same with all three codes. You can add more slide by adding the code:

<div class="slide-wrapper">
<div class="slide-thumbnail">
<img alt="" src="IMAGE-LINK"/>
</div>
<div class="slide-details">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b> TITLE-OF-THE-SLIDE </b></span>
<div class="description">
TEXT-OF-THE-SLIDE
</div>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>

Also you have to add
4
after
3
and so on for next slides.
