    I'm trying to add the following to the belowheader hook, for some reason it's not working.

    function childtheme_slideshow() {

if (function_exists('wp_flash_img_show')) {wp_flash_img_show();} 

add_action('thematic_belowheader','childtheme_slideshow');}

    I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. The only other thing in my function file is the new menu thing for 3.0 and the custom background.

    had a little look
    got it working, see demo
    http://www.dev.virtualpudding.com/

    i pasted the following in functions.php

    function childtheme_slideshow() { ?>
<div id="flash-container">
<?php if (function_exists('wp_flash_img_show')) {wp_flash_img_show();}  ?>
</div>
<?php }

add_action('thematic_belowheader','childtheme_slideshow');

    wrapped in div so i could style

    #flash-container {
    width:960px;
    margin:0 auto;
    overflow:hidden;
    position:relative;
}

    obviously, style as you wish.
    hope this helps. if so, mark post as resolved
