Help implementing an image slider on a site I'm making with the PHP course

I'm trying to implement this slider: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2011/11/21/elastic-image-slideshow-with-thumbnail-preview/

on this website

I can't get it to work as you can tell... I've tried so many things! Any ideas?

** Edit!: I was just able to make it a bit better by setting the height and width of the ".ei-slider" portion of the slider CSS to be the same as my picture files. Now it's not scaling like it's supposed to, but it's a little bit better.

I would recommend getting it to work with static HTML and JavaScript first. Once you know what code the browser needs to get, then you can dig deeper and get that HTML and JavaScript generated dynamically with PHP.
