hey...
this is really simple and cool mod.
i was badly needing it.. and found today.. and got worked in few min... thanks guyz.

only one request. plz provide option for creating more than 10 news.

other than that its really useful.
This module does exactly as described.

To the review of mike123acc I have to say that he obviously expected this module to be something it isn't and as such his review is incorrect, he should have read the description before writing it.

Rudolfe was obviously looking for a similar product as mike123acc but understood this wasn't what he needed.

What I could use as an extra is a component interface where i can enter the parameters and lines of text so it is easier for managers to change the data. For now this module will do for me.
Don't waste time downloading and testing this unless you are happy manually entering the content it displays. It is not a News module in the Joomla sense. It does not use your existing content or articles. I wasted 5 minutes with this, maybe you won't have to.
This module only scrolls up to 10 items of text that you have to manually enter. It does not scroll article contents based on sections or categories. Why that is, I have no idea. The scrolling itself works beautifully, just wish it took it's content from my article database.

This module works well with shape5 free template 1.5.5
At first I thought I had to give over my credit details to acess this extension, but when I went back and read the site instruction carefully, and clicked on the right radio button, I was signed up in a flash without departing with credit card details.
I had this module downloaded and working in less than five mins
Thanks guys for your effort
