This page describes the steps to use an image as the pager in Views Slideshow 3.x.
Images can only be used as a pager if the view formatter is set to show fields and not entire nodes/teasers. Drupal 7 defaults a new view to showing entire nodes and not fields so be sure to change this.
- Change the show formatter to "Fields" instead of "Content" (shown above)
- Add the image field you want to use as your pager to the Fields section
- Click settings on the slideshow format section (shown below)
- Scroll to the bottom of the settings page and check the pager checkbox for the top or bottom section depending on your needs (shown below)
- Check the box for image field you added to your view
- Style the pager with CSS as you see fit to meet your requirements
You should now have the images for the nodes used as the pager elements.
