Hi timned88,
In the next version, Total Slider 1.1, we’ll have a wider selection of templates which should make it really easy to get the look you want. Depending on the timescale of your project, you may want to hang on and wait for the new version, as some things to do with templates will be changing.
If you want to get stuck in now, take a look at our template documentation. If you’re comfortable modifying WordPress templates, it shouldn’t be too much of a stretch to copy the Total Slider template files into your own theme make your own custom Total Slider template. There, you can edit the CSS to change the width and height, and you should be able to make changes to the JavaScript to change the slide duration. (Having said this, there are some code changes coming in v1.1 that might mean you have to go back and change your template later, so you may want to wait.)
If this isn’t something you want to fiddle with, we will have much more built-in flexibility when better template support arrives in version 1.1.
Let us know how you get on with the templates, and if we can help further.
Thanks for using Total Slider!
