Ultimate fade-in script

1) Script Title: ULTIMATE FADE-IN SCRIPT

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...nslideshow.htm

3) Describe problem: I have placed the slide show in a column. It works well but the column is much longer than the show. There is a long blank area under the pics. I am not using any buttons or captions.
A while back I was working to make the script more responsive and I set a black background area to be transparent. Can't remember how I did it. I am thinking the area is the black area set to transparent. Is that original black area a container of some sort. Can I adjust it.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
