 * I have a feeling this is fairly easy and I could probably puzzle it out myself
   given some time, but hey, I’m lazy, and hopefully someone has already done it.
   I’m trying to build a template that will duplicate the slideshow seen at [http://www.planyourmeetings.com/test/newsite/index.html](http://www.planyourmeetings.com/test/newsite/index.html).
   The overall layout is coming along nicely, but I’ll need to create a counter 
   that works with the Next and Previous links to keep track of which slide the 
   user is one. Has anyone built something similar already? Any tips would be greatly
   appreciated.

 * Never mind, I figured it out. If anyone else is wondering (probably not, as it’s
   really really simple, in `frontpageSlideshow_TPL()`, you can get the current 
   slide number with `$id + 1` and the total number of slides with `count($fsentries)`.
   Nice and easy.

 * That’s really helpful for what I was looking to do, thanks Aaron!
