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

  Thanks for the link. I see you are using the Coraline theme but I don’t know what you mean by “feature widget”.

  A slideshow will display a set of images attached to a particular post or page. If you upload images using the Add an Image button while editing/creating the post or page, they will be attached automatically. If you upload images directly to the media library from Media -> Add New, you will need to attach them to a post or page before they will appear in a slideshow. http://en.support.wordpress.com/slideshows/

  The feature widget is the one on the right with the picture titled Wheatear on Liddington Hill. I would like to have a slideshow here instead of a static picture. I believe it can be done but I cannot work out how to do it. I have created a slideshow on a seperate page with no problem.
