<div id="MBT-slider">
<ul id="MBT-sliderContent">
<li class="MBT-sliderImage">
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" />
<span class="right"><h3>HEADING-1 GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span>
</li>
<li class="MBT-sliderImage">
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" />
<span class="left"><h3>HEADING-2 GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span>
</li>

<li class="MBT-sliderImage">
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" />
<span class="top"><h3>HEADING-3 GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span>
</li>
<li class="MBT-sliderImage">
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" />
<span class="bottom"><h3>HEADING-4 GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span>
</li>

<li class="MBT-sliderImage">
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" />
<span class="bottom"><h3>HEADING-5 GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span>
</li>
<div class="clear MBT-sliderImage"></div> </ul>
</div>

Customize The Slideshow Code

Simply replace URL OF IMAGE with the Image link and replace bolded black textswith your preferred headings and descriptions. You can play around how the slider appears. If you want the slider to appear from bottom then change the class tobottom if you want the slider to appear from right then change it to right and so on. If you wish you can set all sliders to bottom or top or to any position you wish.
If you want to slow down the speed with which the slider come and go then settimeOut: 3000 to a higher value like 4000 or 5000.
The default size of all images that I have used in this tutorial is having a width=550px and height=335px. So take images of equal size and then play around the sizes  width: 590px and height: 335px You can note that the width size i.e (590px) is greater than the actual image size of 550px. You will have to keep the width 20-40px greater than the actual image size so that the image may perfectly fit into the slide. 


Add More Images Or Remove an Image From the Slider

To add an extra image just above <div class="clear MBT-sliderImage"></div> add this code, 
<li class="MBT-sliderImage"> 
<img src="URL OF IMAGE" /> 
<span class="bottom"><h3>HEADING GOES HERE</h3>DESCRIPTION GOES HERE</span> 
</li>
