 * The description of the Path theme contains this tantalizing tidbit:
 * >  There are 5 widget areas, 3 menu locations and 9 page templates (most popular
   > articles by comments or views in different time span, archives, authors, tag
   > cloud and slider) in the theme. And guess what, sticky posts are in a cool 
   > FlexSlider.
 * I got the widgets and the menus, but I’m not clear about how I find or use the
   page templates. Would you explain a bit?
 * Also, please help me get started with the sticky posts in the cool FlexSlider.
   I can’t imagine what that’s like, but I sure want to find out!

 * When you edit **Page**, there is Page Attribute metabox on the right. There you
   can choose Page Template.
 * When you edit **Post**, there is Publish metabox on the right. Click Visibility
   >> Edit and check **Stick this post to the front page**.

 * Thank you, I see those are listed as you say. However, I’m not clear how you 
   would use them.
 * For example, I created an “Authors” page with the Author template. I listed three
   authors in the text area. The page as displayed doesn’t look any different from
   a page done with the Default template. **Am I doing something wrong… or missing
   the whole point?**

 * The effect of this is very obvious… and very nice. I see that multiple sticky
   posts produce a series for the slider.
 * I think I figured out that it’s the “featured image” that shows up in the picture
   space of the slider. **Where are the dimensions of the image set?** A quick measurement
   was something like 613×278, but I would like to be able to tweak that.
 * **Where is the time delay set for switching the slider?**

 * Slider image size is prefer to be 660px x 300px.
 * As you might have noticed I “make decisions, not options” in my themes. That’s
   way there is no option to set delay time in the slider. Of course it can be changed
   if necessary.
 * What it comes to Page templates, they work out of the box.

 * Thanks again, Sami! I don’t understand everything, but you’ve given me plenty
   to think about.
