Mike and Karl. thank you both for helping me with this thread! so just for documentation's sake i'll explain what happened:
i run a linux machine and i have an apache server running. all of the files that are served on it need to have certain permissions and be owned by a certain user and be associated with a certain group. the jquery cycle plugin had the wrong permissions and and wrong group and wrong owner. as soon as i changed it, the slideshow worked. i've added more pictures too. i'll be moving to using the 'pager' also found on the same page on your site. i am however having one other problem. before the slideshow worked, i had a dropdown menu on my navbar. but now with the slideshow over it, you can't see the dropdown when you rollover the navbar. sooo, i kinda need the navbar. what do you guys recommend?
