Farely new at Umbraco here. I've been trying to make a full-screen image slider to run on and Umbraco-system. I got all the CSS going and the slide function is working. Now I need my client to manually insert images into the slider himself.
I can't seem to connect any datatype "Image uploader" to my HTML. I've tried Media picker but it won't accept JPEG's and such. Am I missing anything here or is there any other simple way to upload and image?
Image uploader

Hi Nicolai,
From what i understand your client will upload the images through the backend and those images will be used as background images?
Under which version of umbraco are you? You could try Ucomponent package http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/ucomponents.
Else you could add an Upload Field in your document type and then use XSLT to return the image uploaded.

Hi there
Just a thought...
Can your client upload images to a media folder ? If so then your image slider can read all the images in the folder and "slide" accordingly.
Or am I reading your query wrong ?
