 * Hello I’d like to customize the way meteor displays by customizing the template(
   meteor-slideshow.php ) …Except i want to make it upgrade-proof, by not having
   to edit that file, and doing something like copying the stylesheet into my theme
   directory.

 * Hi, what changes exactly are you trying to make? Do you need to customize the
   slideshow loop in **meteor-slideshow.php**, or the stylesheet for the slideshow?

 * Alright, you should probably be able to do this with a custom stylesheet. Check
   out the [FAQ](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/meteor-slides/faq/) for more
   info on setting up the stylesheet.
 * Modifying a few of the rules should move the prev/next nav below the slideshow:
 *     ```
       #meteor-slideshow {
       margin:0 0 10px;
       overflow:hidden;
       padding:0 0 30px 0;
       }
   
       .meteor-nav a {
       bottom:0;
       display:block;
       height:25px !important;
       position:absolute;
       text-indent:-9999px;
       width:25px;
       z-index:50;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you check out the paged buttons with [Firebug](http://getfirebug.com/), those
   are numbered, they are just styled to be graphics instead. You could show the
   numbers like this:
 *     ```
       .meteor-buttons a {
       background: none;
       display:block;
       float:left;
       height:20px;
       margin:0 2px;
       text-indent:auto;
       width:10px;
       }
       ```
   
 * It is possible to do an image count like “1/8”, but you would have to add bit
   of jQuery to your theme’s header. Check out [this jQuery Cycle demo](http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/count.html)
   for more info.
