My enthusiasm would probably have you to think that I was asked or paid to make the following comments, but I don't even know these guys! LOL! But I've got to tell you, as a web designer, I can create some very, very advanced web layouts. And in such cases, I REALLY need something that doesn't box me into a pre-defined module wrapper. I've had to hack and customize many modules to fit the look and feel of my sites. With this one???? AN ANSWER TO PRAYER! LOL! With the JXTC Deluxe News Module (rightly named "deluxe") I have endless possibilities that are SIMPLE and EASY to use! Man! I just ran across this tonight and I'm ALREADY cooking with grease! Thank you JoomlaXTC team! Y'all rock!

Easy to install, and works well once you do the following...
The developer gives an example of the html that is easy to copy and paste into the module admin section. However, there is a bug in the example given. Images were not being shown alongside the text.
This problem was easily fixed though by deleting the slash before the {link} tag (as shown on the sample code page)
Refer fix thread.

This module works really good. I've been looking for something similar for ages, and till I found this never found anything near.
Because it's version 1.0, I'm gonna tell what I would improve. If you are really bad or null at html (like I am) this will be a bit difficult to configure. You gotta follow the example that they give you in the download section and from there you gotta try some things till you get the result you want. If developers keeps working in this, it would be nice if they could substitute all the html by simple querys like: Image size, font type, etc, etc, instead of having to type all the html or css or whatever is that (sorry, as I said I know nearly nothing about css or html).
But overall, it does what it says, and I really recommend it to those who are looking for something like this.
Thank you developers, and I'll keep looking for updates!
