:And that's exactly what the problem was. The pictures need to be ''exactly'' the dimensions given above. Might be possible for them to be bigger (i.e., might be the ''minimum'' dimensions). Don't know yet. But certainly 673 x 410 works well. That's not a huge problem on the new series, cause that describes a basically widescreen ratio that's a little less that 16:9. But it's a bit of a challenge for classic series dimensions. Resizing a full frame of a classic series episode will make it appear distorted, to one degree or another, so you have to actually do some cropping to get the picture close to widescreen first. <span style="background:#cc3333; border:1px dotted #777777; padding:1px 3px 1px 3px; margin-left:4px; font-size:85%;-moz-border-radius:5px;">'''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="color:#b7b7ff; cursor:help" title="Don't worry.">czech</span><span style="color:#dbd8ff" title="I'm a force for good.">out</span>]]''' [[User talk:CzechOut|<font color="#ffffff" title="Talk to me">☎</font>]] [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font color="#ffffff" title="See what I've been up to">✍</font>]] [[Special:Contributions/CzechBot|<font color="#ffffff" title="Czech up on the bot"></font>]]</span> 01:34, January 23, 2011 (UTC) | |||

Hello
Development notes
It's unclear why this slider it isn't working, because it's coded according to Help:Sliders (and this modified version of the Wikia standard help file). It seems to slightly fall short of Help:Galleries and slideshows, though. A possible clue is that the pictures involved might have to be exactly 673px X 410px, which obviously means custom cropping. czechout ☎ ✍ 00:45, January 23, 2011 (UTC)
