Hi Raghav, I tried to use the ' reply ' button to your private message, but I'm getting this lame warning / unsecure website window popping up, and it's not letting me complete the ' reply ' command. I think this website might have screwed me over when they did some design change, and I'm using an older version of chrome - wasn't broke, but now it is. Here is my reply:

HI Raghav,
Thank you so much, for getting back to me, and for your kind words : )
You're offer to assist in some web design, is actually quite timely. I've been wanting to create a website, mostly for the gallery / museum audience, that would host both my landscape and my figurative works, under one url.
The website,
www.elizabethstone.com
( she has some very cool work ), has a slide show design, that I want very much, to copy, exactly. Weebly, helped her make her site, but those knuckleheads won't help me, because of my fine art nudes - pretty lame, actually. If you could visit her website, and check out her slide show. The key points of this particular slide show design, that I have not been able find, anywhere else ( which is baffling ), has:
* fade out / fade in ( which is pretty common )
* an icon that appears in the upper left corner of a given image, but only when the cursor is over the image, that lets you stop and start, the slide show - which is very cool
* same with the manual, left / right arrows, to let you manually go through a slide show, of a particular portfolio, but the arrows are only visible, again, when the cursor is over an image only, which is pretty clean and elegant
* showing the thumbnails, as they slowly crawl by, at the bottom of the slide show, as you progress through the slide show.
If you could visit her site, and take note of the slide show, please let me know of your skill set includes the ability to replicate that slide show, exactly. That would be pretty brilliant, if you could, but please do let me know, k ?
Thanks again, so much Raghav !!!!
