title: Adding Custom transition effect to jCarousel Smooth Slider Wordpress Plugin
body: <p>The <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/smooth-slider/" rel="nofollow">Smooth Slider wp Plugin</a> uses the jquery.jcarousel.min.js for transition effects. The problem is that it contains a single type of transition (the default): swing.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone please guide me into how I can change the transition type to something like fading? From what I've read, I have to use the <em>.animate()</em> function from jQuery, more specifically the <strong>easing</strong> attribute.</p>
  
  <p>I understand that it must be done using the jQueryUI, maybe adding plugins to existing jQuery?  The problem is I am a total noob with jQuery and would really appreciate some guidance.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the slider which I would like to customize: <a href="http://brainconcert.com/minovici/" rel="nofollow">http://brainconcert.com/minovici/</a></p>
