Pretty good plugin, but loading large numbers of images from the Media Library is very tedious

I needed a simple image slider where I could easily set up basic things such as slides per view, responsive breakpoints etc. This plugin provides exactly what I needed and it simply works. Thank you!

This is a great plugin that makes it easy to create sliders of images (like a logo carousel) to more complicated patterns like a slider showcasing a quote with image and text. Great work! Thanks for making including a professional looking slider component so easy!
