# 3D Sliders

### Overview:

- The slides/controls/transition effects for each 3D slider are controlled by an XML file.
- We've included 8 XML files all ready to go for you. You simply modify the XML to point to your new images (image dimensions below).
- All images used in the 3D sliders should be place inside the `3dimages` folder.
- XML files are well commented and easy to edit. The most basic level of modification is simply swapping out images. You can also add/remove slides and change transition effects.
- Full documentation for XML options can be found here: CU3ER XML Reference
