   Hi
   Can I use the slide images as background images instead of images inside the "mslide" DIV?
   Can the meteor-slideshow.phph file be modified that way?

   Thanks
   Dan

   Ok, I think I figured it out, it seems to be working, but would be glad to hear your insights:
   

   <?php // Loop which loads the slideshow</p>
   while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
   <?php
   $src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID),  false, '' );
   ?>
   			<div class="mslide mslide-<?php echo $i; ?>" style="background:url(<?php echo $src[0]; ?>) no-repeat right top;">
   <p>			</div><!-- .mslide --></p>
   <p>			<?php $i++; ?></p>
   <p>		<?php endwhile; ?>

   Yeah, that's right, you just get the URL for the featured image and use inline CSS to set it as the background image.

   Those paragraph tags could be a problem though, did they get added on accident?

   Yes, the editor added them in.

   Thanks

   OK then that should work fine, I've done the same without any issues.
