## Description

Works similar to the WordPress 3.x header image but instead allows you to place 
in your theme a set of header images that rotate using
 either a sliding effect 
or a crossfade effect.

## Installation

To use this plugin you need to add a function in your theme and possibly add some
additional CSS.
 Here is an example of how we use it for many of our client websites.

Where #splash is a fallback to the built in WordPress theme “custom header” feature

The block of code we would either put into a custom home page template or wrap in
a call to is_front_page.

#### Features

 * Easily configure home page graphics
 * Change dynamic graphic order via drag and drop
 * Change link text and add custom HTML
 * Upload and crop graphics using a fixed aspect ratio
