This plugin adds a Gallery Posts menu to your WordPress dashboard. To add content to the rotating gallery:
<ol>
<li>Add a new Gallery Post for each image/headline to be shown in the rotating gallery</li>
<li>Attach one or more images to the gallery post by uploading the image(s) with the media uploader while editing the post</li>
<li>Enter the title & content that you would like to overlay the image</li>
<li>Publish the post(s)</li>
<li>Add the Rotating Post Gallery widget to widget area on your home page</li>
<li>Enter the number of Posts to rotate in the gallery (default = All).</li>
<li>Choose the size of image to display in the gallery (based on your Media Settings)</li>
</ol>
When multiple images are attached to a Gallery Post one of the images is randomly selected to be shown on each page view.
In the initial verion, you will have to add some CSS to your theme’s stylesheet:
<pre><code>.slideshow {
 width: 123px;
 height: 456px;
}
</code></pre>
Substitute 123 & 456 with the width & height in your Media Settings.

This plugin allows Admin users the ability to add custom CSS and JavaScript directly into individual Post, Pages or any other registered custom post types. You can also add classes to the body tag and the post container. There is a Global settings page for which you can write Scripts n Styles for the entire blog.
Admin’s can also add classes to the TinyMCE “Formats” dropdown which users can use to style posts and pages directly. As of Scripts n Styles 3+ styles are reflected in the post editor.
Because only well trusted users should ever be allowed to insert JavaScript directly into the pages of your site, this plugin restricts usage to admin type users. Admin’s have access to even more sensitive areas by definition, so that should be relatively safe 😉
<h4>Notes about the implementation:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Admin users, or more specifically, any user with the <code>manage_options</code> and <code>unfiltered_html</code> capabilities (which by default is only the admin type user) can use this plugin’s functionality. Some plugins extend user rolls, and so this plugin would naturally extend include rolls that have the appropriate capability.</li>
<li>CSS Styles are embeded, not linked, at the bottom of the <code>head</code> element with <code>style</code> tags by using <code>wp-head</code>. If your theme doesn’t have this hook, this plugin (as well as most others) won’t work.</li>
<li>JavaScript is embeded, not linked, at the bottom of the <code>body</code> (or <code>head</code>) element with <code>script</code> tags by using <code>wp-footer</code> (or <code>wp-head</code>). If your theme doesn’t have this hook, this plugin (as well as most others) won’t work.</li>
<li>There is no input validation. This plugin puts exactly what you type in the meta box directly into the <code>html</code> with no error checking. You are an Admin, and we trust you to be carefull. Try not to break anything.</li>
<li>Do to the licensing of the libraries used, this plugin is released “GPL 3.0 or later” if you care about those things.</li>
</ul>

Scripts n Styles

This plugin is simply awesome. 
No other words to say. 

Must have! Great Job.

This plugin allows Admin users to individually add HTML, custom CSS, Classes and JavaScript directly to Post, Pages or any other custom post types.
