  I would love to have a slideshow on the first page of my blog, showing all those who participate, comment, etc.. Is this possible or do I need to be a VIP member?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  There is no slideshow I know of that will pull all of that in to one slideshow dynamically. If you can find RSS feeds for each of those things, you MIGHT be able to create a slideshow using some sort of offsite application, and then adopt it using the Gigya workaround to display on your blog, but that would be relatively heavy lifting.

  Some of the new themes have slideshows that feature your latest or featured posts. And you can always create a static, not dynamic, slideshow using one of the approved slideshows embeds. http://en.support.wordpress.com/?s=slideshow

  The Modularity Lite theme has a front page slideshow feature. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/modularity-lite/

  Apparently that is not an option on my theme….at least I could not find the “yes I’d like to enable” thing…

  Thanks
