 * Is it easy to implement Prev/Next buttons for background manager, something like
   slideshow?
 * Thanks

 * I can have a look on implementing this as a feature, but currently it isn’t possible
   to do so.

 * Can that be done in some near future? 🙂
 * How are images rotating right now, what functions should I call? I would like
   to add link that will call function for rotating, so I don’t need to wait 10 
   seconds. Something like manual rotating?
 * Thanks for your help.

 * The function that is called `myatu_bgm.switchBackground()` and is called using
   a JS Timer, accessible through the `myatu_bgm.timer` variable. So essentially
   you can cancel the timer, and call the function manually. The only thing is that
   it does not allow you to pick the next or previous image in a sequence (this 
   is done with PHP).
