You forgot to fix the CSS file reference:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="flexslider/flexslider.css" type="text/css" media="screen"/>

Still points to a lowercase flexslider. Needs to point to an uppercase Flexslider folder.

Thank you so much! It now works! :D

So now, is there a way to make the background of the images black?

Awesome!

That is something you would probably have to look into within the slider app you are using.

On line 77 of the flexslider.css
.flexslider {
margin: 0px 0px 60px;
background: #FFF none repeat scroll 0% 0%;
border: 4px solid #FFF;
position: relative;
border-radius: 4px;
}

Change this
background: #FFF
to
background: #000

and this
border: 4px solid #FFF;
to
border: 4px solid #000;

Thank you for responding, Eric. I tried changing the background and border color on the css sheet and then published it again but it's still white.

I did. I refreshed several times.
I saved the changes after changing the .css file in the flexslider folder, but maybe I need to save it another way to be active in the RSD software?
I also tried viewing in both Explorer and Chrome (both show white behind the samples). I looked through the rest of the coding to see if anything popped out as something with white but only fonts/shadows had white. But in all honesty, I really don't know what I'm looking at.

On this page the css looks unchanged.

Did you alter the flexslider.css after export and publish? If you added the flexslider.css to your rsd project and export it will overwrite your edits.
A way around this is to add a link to a custom.css to the head of your rsd project page and do the custom alterations on that. You won't add this to your project but you will upload it to your site as you make changes.

You're right...that's exactly what I did (tried to change it after publishing the pages). I have NO idea how to set up a custom .css file, however, and then would I "Add Resource" to the header, and would it matter if it showed up before or after what's already there?
