Anybody got any good samples of a really good or free slider for a Wordpress Homepage?
I need it to have an option for linking each sliders image to another page on the website as well as the ability too add a button as an overlay to another link if hovered over.
Thanks for your help.

It also needs to be responsive across desktop tablet and phone.

And full width, something similar to the sample below, but it needs to have customisable buttons that link to pdf downloads or other pages on the site.

http://soliloquywp.com/ is really good and made by a well-respected developer in the industry.
Revolution slider is exactly what ArmandoEstrada said above. I avoid it at all costs, but sometimes I'm forced to work with it.
If you want to roll your own, I suggest a combination of http://bxslider.com/ and Advanced Custom Fields as mentioned above. I've done that on a number of projects with good results.

A lot of options yes - but will do anything you could possibly need.fadein11
