## Description

Add additional featured images to any post type and display using either a built
in image gallery/slideshow shortcode or by using a single image shortcode. Most 
plugins or developers use the non Javasript API media uploader, which is notorious
for being glitchy and slow. This leverages the not well known WordPress Javascript
API to mimic the built in media uploader. Great for end users or developers.

This plugin was super easy to setup and get running. I was able to add more images
to my posts and display a slideshow with a shortcode. Highly recommend.
