 * Hi Jeff,
 * The plug in works well for me in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.For some reason 
   though Explorer won’t use the Main text transparency settings on the overlay 
   and the buttons show up for a brief moment on the initial page load but then 
   disappear and all I see is the background.
 * I’m a real hack at this so any help would be appreciated.
 * This is the page I’m reffering to

 * I only got the transparency issue add this before the wphead(); statement into
   your theme’s header:
 *     ```
       <!--[if IE]>
       <style type="text/css">
       #fs-text { filter: alpha(opacity=85); }
       </style>
       <![endif]-->
       ```
   
 *  and let me know it its ok

 * Hey I tried this I’m working on a slide show at [http://www.calvarychapelredwing.com](http://www.calvarychapelredwing.com)
   and the buttons disappear directly after load in IE. I tried the fix above, but
   to no avail. I’m working on an edited version of the twenty-ten theme. Any ideas?
   By the way, thanks for the plugin…..it is awesome.
