That's not possible on a free hosted WordPress.com blog and we cannot edit themes or templates to enable that.

Does the Custom Design upgrade let me edit HTML?
No. The Custom Design upgrade allows you to edit fonts and CSS only. You can change the appearance of a theme, but not its HTML markup, PHP code, or content. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#frequently-asked-questions

The Sight theme is a theme with a featured post slider that does auto-advance but you cannot control the frequency of display. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/sight/

I was a bit suspicious about self-hosted Fresh & Clean because a) it isn't listed at wordpress.org/themes and b) the developer hasn't made it easy to contact him from wpexplorer.com (not saying that the work there isn't good, obviously). But the demo at wpexplorer.me is reassuring.

Resolved!

But I can't seem to find a wordpress.org version either... My client might be willing to upgrade... I've found forums where people have discussed this theme for .org, but it isn't showing up in the .org theme search.

The theme does come with a 'slider' but it doesn't seem to 'slide'... you have to manually click between slides to change them.

That's correct. The version we have does not auto-advance.

The theme does come with a 'slider' but it doesn't seem to 'slide'... you have to manually click between slides to change them.

On the developer's site it says: 'Via the theme panel you can choose your sliding speed, animation and transition. You can also define a custom link for each slide or leave the option blank to show only images.' But those options are not on my dashboard.

Is this no longer supported? Or am I perhaps missing something. I do appreciate it is a free theme and I would be grateful for any insights.

Otherwise, are there any other good free themes with sliders that automatically pull post titles into the slide?

Many, many thanks.

Try clearing your browser cache and checking it again. I also noticed that several of your posts have broken images in them, and that might be causing some trouble for you. I would recommend going through and fixing any broken images. See "graduation speech" for example, it has a reference to a broken image http://whyisthatfunny.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/3.jpg at the top. To fix that, you will need to open the post for editing, remove the broken image and re-insert an image either from your media library or computer.
