Open up the psd file which comes with your theme (avisio.psd), resize and export the shadow layer. Afterwards replace the shadow image under images/skin1/bg_shadow.png You can also remove the shadow by deleting following code in style1.css: <pre><code>.wrapper_shadow .center{ background: transparent url("../images/skin1/bg_shadow.png") no-repeat center center; }</code></pre> larsj on "How can I resize the slider area to be smaller (not 940x420 but less?)" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-can-i-resize-the-slider-area-to-be-smaller-not-940x420-but-less#post-11374 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 10:28:47 +0000 larsj 11374@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ When I change in the css to 220px height, the slider images shrink to the new height. However, I get akward black disturbing shades above and under the slider images. Is there anything else I need to change?

Example - if you want to decrease the height to 380px you need to generate images with the dimensions 940x360 and change the css code like: <pre><code>#featured{ height:380px; clear: both; position: relative; }</code></pre> Dude on "How can I resize the slider area to be smaller (not 940x420 but less?)" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-can-i-resize-the-slider-area-to-be-smaller-not-940x420-but-less#post-8999 Tue, 16 Nov 2010 17:05:57 +0000 Dude 8999@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I'll request it from Kriesi.

I'd really like to get on top of this... any chance you could speak to Kriesi? I know a few people find the slider too big, pushing important H1 headers below the fold... Can I email or upload the template to you? thanks, Shigs Dude on "How can I resize the slider area to be smaller (not 940x420 but less?)" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-can-i-resize-the-slider-area-to-be-smaller-not-940x420-but-less#post-8979 Tue, 16 Nov 2010 08:19:44 +0000 Dude 8979@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I don't have the html version of Levitation (I would need to request it from Kriesi first) but I'm sure the values "390" and "940" can be found in your theme files..Because the strings above are used for php generation you won't find them in the html version. shigs on "How can I resize the slider area to be smaller (not 940x420 but less?)" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/how-can-i-resize-the-slider-area-to-be-smaller-not-940x420-but-less#post-8952 Mon, 15 Nov 2010 16:50:34 +0000 shigs 8952@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi James, Thanks for the quick response but: - Levitation (HTML version) does not have an Index.php (only Index.html) - I couldn't find either strings in the entire website.

I'm using the slider in INDEX.html (the 1st example of 2), and the slider is (I think) 410 px high pushing my content below it "below the fold". I want to reduce the height to about 380px. Can I just reduce the height by removing some spacers?

He is insisting that the whole slider area is reduced by 75%. I've tried to find where I do that but cannot. Could somebody let me know how I do that? Thank you!!
