   e.g.1: [quoteRotator]
   e.g.2: [quoteRotator title="Testimonials" delay="8" fade="4" fadeout="2"]

This plugin allows full styling flexibility using CSS to control how the quotes are displayed on your web site. A few example stylesheets are included in the styles folder (/wp-content/plugins/flexi-quote-rotator/styles/). One of these can be selected in the settings admin panel. You can copy and modify one of these stylesheets to achieve the desired look. Then you save it in the styles folder and it will become an available for selection in the settings admin panel. Alternatively you can select ‘none’ for stylesheet and add the styling to your main theme stylesheet. Photoshop source files are also provided if you want to modify the provided background images.
