Features
Display feature images on mobile, tablet, and desktop devices that can be navigated via pagination links, next/previous buttons, and swiping. Images scale and maintain aspect ratio for optimal size on all devices. When hovering over the pagination, the related slide’s title appears in a tooltip. The text size is reduced in smaller layouts to best fit the space available.
The pan/zoom effect can easily be modified by adding CSS classes to each featured image, such as seq-to to zoom in, seq-from to zoom-out, seq-center to zoom to/from the center, seq-top-left to zoom to/from the top left, and so on.
Responsive
Supports 320px width and up. Tested on mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.
Touch Support
Touch swiping and tapping supported to allow for navigation between steps.

Works across modern browsers, with a fallback theme in Internet Explorer 8 and 9. Optionally, you may use respond.js with this theme to add media query support in Internet Explorer 8.
