Dear David,

That's interesting. I see the slideshow fine- a series of images that rotate
with a quote at the top. I'm not sure what's up with your background image.

I'm not really comfortable with giving you accounts on our system with file
level access, unfortunately. I assumed you had all the modules you wanted
installed. If you need more installed, I would suggest that you let me know
what they are, although my time commitments for putting things into place
aren't guaranteed to mesh with your timeline.  It might be better for you to
return to developing your dev site on your localhost server until you're
ready to put it into production.

Best regards,
Chris Ritzo
