Hello,
So in order to get this image slider as your header, you will need to create Sticky Posts ( You are allowed up to 10) along with a featured image. That is how it will create what you see on the Forever Theme.Here are some links to see how to create sticky posts and featured images.

Thank you,
Can I do it with the standard or do I need to pay for the Upgrade af the theme?
And do you know where I find the editor of the home page?Sorry i am new to wordpress:)

You do not need to upgrade with this feature.
In order to set up the featured image, You will need to go to Posts>Add New.
You will want to scroll down to the bottom right corner where it says featured image. You will choose your image there. From there you will want to make it a sticky post, so you will scroll back up, on the right hand side it will say Visibility, hit the edit button. Under the Public option, you will see “Stick this post to the front page” go ahead and click that option.Hopefully that helps you with what you were needing. Anything we can do to help. :-)

Go to http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/forever/ and read the detailed theme description there. Scroll down to “A Dramatic Personalized Home Page”
The post slider shows only on the posts page. It will display featured image posts provided are marking selected posts as stickies and setting a featured image of the required dimensions in each one.
Sticky Posts Featured Image Slider: at least 888 pixels wide

http://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/If you don’t see the Featured Image module on your Add New or Edit Post page, please make sure you’ve selected Featured Image in your Screen Options. http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options
To show only your four latest posts (with a Featured Image above each one, of course) in a neat grid on your home page just visit Appearance → Theme Options and click the checkbox there. Thumbnail on 4-column showcase for recent posts. Width 195px, maximum height 124px (cropped if larger).
The four latest posts are the four most recently published posts so they will change when you publish new posts.

Thank you.
I have read it all carefully, but on my dashboard under add new page there is nothing below public under visibility.
This webpage is not a blog so it want have posts, its a simple webpage showing different products, so maybe its the wrong theme, just need one with the posibility of having loads of images and a simple menu.
I dont like that the front page image is visible all the time even when clicking on a menu button.
