## Description

Responsive Slideshow is a free Photo Carousel & Slider Plugin that helps you build
swipeable galleries that work smoothly on all devices.
 You can create a presentation
for your homepage. It also lets you build a carousel to showcase client logos. This
utility handles everything without any complex coding.

The carousel adjusts automatically to different screen sizes.
 Your media will look
sharp on desktops, tablets, and phones. Touch and swipe gestures work out of the
box. Mobile visitors can easily browse through your slides.

I wanted to liven upp my site a bit and started looking for some kind of slider 
plugin. The one that looked most promising was the Slider Responsive Slideshow, 
and I installed it. Very clever design, easy to configure, great show on the page.
I had one problem, though, I wanted to get rid of the dots below the slider. I asked
the question, got an immediate answer, needed further clarification, got it – and
now I’m happy.
