LenSlider is a WordPress plugin for creation of visual sliders, carousels or slideshows for your site without writing any code. All sliders based on LenSlider skins, and skins have effects based on jQuery and CSS3. Use a shortcode in your posts/pages or static php-code in your template files to integrate any slider you made.
