The following tutorial is suggested for advanced users only.
Requires knowledge of FTP Clients or File Manager and a Text Editor’s such as Notepad++ or TextWrangler
1) Use an FTP Client or Filemanager and access your hosting server.

The typical filepath is: yourdomain/wp-content/themes/smallbiz/layouts/rotator
2) Change the Width and Height to your needs – see screenshot below.
(The example below shows slides that 940px wide and 215px height – replace with your own size )
3) Upload the edited file and backup the original file before overwritting.
4) In the same directory as the “Frontpage.php” file look for a CSS folder.
Open the file called “screen.css”
5) Change the width and heighof the “#slideshow” to match the size in Step 2
If you don’t want any text to the right of the slideshow, but rather below it remove – “float:left;”
