Wes,
Thanks for getting back so quickly. Here’s what I did. I took you XML file and imported it. It loads all the setting for your DEMO slider. I then downloaded each of the SLIDE FILES (slides3-2.png, slides3-3.png, slides3-4.png as examples), and put them in a folder on my server. Once I connected their URL locations to my folders, they were in MY SLIDER ADMIN panel in WP because of your XML. From there I was able to see how they used, timing, in and out points, etc. I then tried my OWN images and text and it works like a charm. Thanks again.
