With <a href="https://github.com/pixelgrade/pixcodes" rel="nofollow ugc">PixCodes</a> you can have a shortcode insert interface.
The awesome part is that you can filter any shortcode parameters or overwrite any shortcode template with your theme.
Note: this plugin does not add any style to the output of shortcodes.
We believe that shortcodes functionality should be offered by a plugin and the style should be provided by themes.
Here is a <a href="http://github.com/pixelgrade/pixcodes/blob/master/README.md" rel="nofollow ugc">detailed documentation</a> about how you can configure some plugin settings and output.

PixCodes

PixCodes offers you a nice interface to add shortcodes into editor.

Bamboo Manchester

This plugin adds a ‘Slide’ post type to WordPress. These work like normal posts, and can be grouped into ‘Slide Groups’ which work just like post categories. Once you have created all your slides in the appropriate groups, you can add a slider to any page or post by using the bamboo-slides’ shortcode. You can have multiple sliders on one page, and they can be anywhere you like, so they work just as well for footers as they do for banners.
Each slide can contain any type of content that a post can, and depending on the chosen mode, the slides will be switched , faded, or slid into view. Slides can also have a feature image, which if supplied will be used as the background image for the slide.
Usage
Insert the ’bamboo-slides’ shortcode into your content as follows:
<pre><code>[bamboo-slides group=homepage slides timer=4 buttons=on indicators=on mode=fade]
</code></pre>
All of the attributes are optional, with the following possible values:
group 
Selects the group of slides to display, if not set all the slides will be displayed regardless of which group they are in
timer 
Number of seconds to wait between each slide, if set to 0 the slides will only change when the buttons are used
buttons 
If this is set then the slides will have buttons enabling the user to advance the slides manually
indicators 
If this is set then the slides will have indicators at the bottom indicating the current slide
mode 
switch Simple switch from one slide to next 
fade Fade each slide in and out
