Cu3er is an image slider that you can use to visually enhance your website and grab user’s attention. The slider was initially conceived to create 3D transitions between slides. It turned out to be a convenient and multifunction solution that can be applied in different areas with regards to web design. You can use Cu3er as a content slider, feature slider or as an image and banner rotator.

To use Cu3er, you don’t need to be an expert web designer but you do need a limited knowledge in web authoring. You can set it up and have it running if you are quite familiar with Flash Player 9, XML Basics, Embedding .swf files into web pages using SWFObject.js and has some experience in image editing such as creating and exporting slides. If you wish to run your own 3D slider but worried that your knowledge on the mentioned web authoring tools is not sufficient, you can start by reading basic tutorials that are related to the ones needed to run Cu3er. You can also read the quickstart and user’s guide pages provided by the Cu3er team and get a step-by-step guide in customizing and setting up Cu3er in your website.
