JQuery Sliders

Ok, so we’ve all seen them. There are hundreds of them all over the internet – but, which sliders are any good? The unfortunate answer to this is you have to try them. Then try another one. And another one. And another one.
I was going to use this one from Wowslider – the downside, however, is that you have to pay for it. It also looked like it may be tricky to “skin” via css… In class, students were chatting about the free SlidesJS so, for the moment, I have decided to go with this one. SlidesJS looks fairly easy to skin and is swipe compatible – which is extremely important for the Shackadelic site.

SlidesJS was easy to skin via css but unfortunately has other problems – particularly in iOS. If I get time, I’ll create a separate post about this…
