  Hi guys!

  I’m looking for a theme with a header image, but I want the image to rotate through a list of images. Does anyone know like this? Preferably, I’d like a theme somewhat similar to the debut theme, but it to have images rotate through it’s header as opposed to having only one.

  Thanks!

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

  There are many themes here that have rotating custom header images. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/custom-header/
  You can read more about this theme feature here http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/custom-header-image/

  There are also themes that have featured posts image sliders. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/post-slider/ In most themes with featured post sliders visitors have to click to advance the slider to the next featured post. Some themes have a featured post slider that automatically advances: Debut, Currents, Linen, On Demand, Modularity Lite. (the first 4 are premium themes) and the last one is a free theme.

  Thanks a lot, timethief, but I have another question. I clicked on the “preview” button so I could see what my blog would look like with these themes, but my site didn’t look like the stock photos. In general, the rotating images are totally missing. Is this because I am missing something in my blog or is there another reason?

  To follow up, on some of the themes, it uses the images in the posts as images for the header, but I want to just use specific images in my library, is this possible?

  Thank again.
