DRUPAL 7 MODULE INSTALLATION
1. You must install the Libraries API before enabling this module.

2. Download the Flux Slider library from one of the locations shown above and
upload it to /sites/all/libraries/flux-slider/flux.js
(If the Flux Slider library is not at this location an error message will
appear telling you to consult the README.txt file)

3. Place the entire Flux Slider directory into your Drupal modules directory 
(normally sites/default/modules).

4. Enable the module by navigating to:

Admin > Modules

5. If you want anyone besides the administrative user to be able to configure
the Flux Slider (usually a bad idea), they must be given the 
"administer flux slider" access permission:

Admin > People > Permissions

When the module is enabled and the user has the "administer flux slider"
permission, a "Flux Slider" menu should appear under
Admin > Structure in the menu system.

********************************************************************

Future plans;
Add user upload for adding/replacing images
Add support for more images to be contained within the slider
