Looking for a slider that will allow for an image/logo and description of a couple of sentences displayed to the right of the logo.
See the slider on this home page. About 2/3 of the way done with the beige background. Sample image below.

I would like something that provides for the image and description. If I can't find it, I can create the logo-description as a graphic. But I have about 40 of these.
thanks!

Have you tried the carousel?

Viewing the source of the link you provided the slider that is used is the "FlexSlider" WWB has the following extension. Note that the one used in the site has been customized to suit the needs. With that said crispy68 suggestion of using the carousel you can achieve the same.

Well yes crispy68, I did try the carousel and it didn't work.
UNTIL you suggested it so I tried it again and learned that I can add both an image AND text in a slide. That was certainly easy.
THANKS!
btw, I also tried the PHPJabbers Gallery script. I had an issue with the logos being 250px and it made them too big with the default widths over 800, or when making is smaller it dropped from 2 wide (where the text is on the right side) to 1 wide with the text over the 1 image. Their support told me where the breakpoint for 2 to 1 items was in the code. I also found that I could change the number of items from 2 to 3 in the code. So that provides a possible solution too.
Here is my experiment page where I am trying a number of options:

I played around with the code in PHPJabbers Gallery script with some guidance from their support. Then got some help making some simple edits in the CSS file. The result is pretty good for large to medium display. Have some work to do on the mobile view.
The slider is about halfway down the page.
