  I’m using the Fortune theme & there is no slider included in the design.

  Is there any way I can add one i.e. through CSS code or a plugin?

  I want it to be in the introduction area on the Front page, so instead of a featured image across the top of the page it would rotate between a few images.

  I know there are themes with built in sliders – I just really like this theme; its perfect in every other way.

  Appreciate any advice on how to do this!

  Hi, you don’t need CSS or plugins for do that.
  See here:
  Presentations

  Slideshows

  Or you can choice a theme with a slider:

  Thanks for your response, although I don’t like the way slideshows & presentations look in this theme, Ideally I would put a slider going all the way across the top of the page. Is there a plugin on WordPress.com that would facilitate this?

  No.
  Only the Business Plan has the possibility to add Google Analytics as an additional plugin. Otherwise we cannot add to the plugins that are already built in to the WordPress.com platform.
