I installed and used this the first day. The developers have a pdf manual that is useful and when I asked questions on their support forums, I receive a prompt reply.
Tip: When pasting code into the "source" toggle of the article field, press "Save and Close" otherwise if you hit save or toggle the WYSIWYG editor corrupts the coding and the module/plugin will not work. This may just be a Joomla 1.6 issue

I installed Art Sexy Lightbox and it works fine from the first moment. i love it! it's also good for the set in flickr. I get someconflicts with others plugins but the support team gave me quick hand to solve it!
Just a very short review to say that this is amazing and worth every penny and more. I asked if it was possible to include folders and subfolders and WAW there it was. Then I asked if the folders could be displayed in a grid format and within a day the day an email back with an updated version. No extra fee or anything. Amazing.
I purchased the ASL and found that I couldn't get it to work with a highly customised virtuemart flypage that we had written. The support from Artectics was outstanding! they fixed the issues and email me back a working version of our flypage.
I have also had several minor questions about the functionality which have been answered within minutes, it's a very professional company and an excellent product, which works very well.
We have purchased several 3rd party extensions and this is the first review we have written, simply because these guys deserve the credit for a great product and absolutely outstanding customer service.
Thanks

I tried 4 other extensions before I found this one and as a newcomer to Joomla and being a bit stupid, I was having problems getting it to do what I wanted. I did not use the forum but, instead decided to send an email to try and get support. Oh my! Artetics Support Team made me feel as if they had moved in to sit at my desk, their response was that quick! I was getting answers to questions within 30 minutes! Absolutely nothing has been to much trouble, their patience and helpfulness in explaining has been fantastic.
And of course the extension does everything I want and performs beautifully.

I dont leave reviews ever but Artetics deserve it for this plugin/module. I have tried all of the popup/modal boxes to display my images and this was by far the best option because it has far more options than any other extension I have found. Many styles and options to choose from. Not only is the extension good but the reason I want people to know about it is because of the support you get when you purchase this. If you have a problem then you just post it in the forum and they will respond right away, the longest I had to wait was a few hours. I had a problem using the plugin on 1 of my sites so I posted it in the forum and within an hour they sent me a new copy that they customized to suit my need. You wont be sorry. Amazing extensions and best support out there.
Art Sexy Lightbox is an exellent extension, which brings surprising effects for the user of a website. A webdesigner can customize these effects easy.
What have to be mentioned is the very, very quick, effective and professionel support of the artetics.com team.
Sometimes it takes only minutes to get the answer of a special question.
You pay a little price for a lot of features an an excellent and friendly support.
I can highly recommend this extension.

Program is fine. All basic options available. But important is how they help people like me. I had problem with re-installation of Art Sexy lightbox, I have asked help from artetics.com, unbelievable, they fixed everything within 20 minutes and my site is buck again. Thanks to there team!!!!!!!!!!!
This extension was already working great for me, but the true test was when I had a question and had to email them. Without exaggeration, I emailed them this morning at 9:56am and I received a response at 9:58am! Some may argue that it was just coincidence or luck, but it doesn't matter to me. The point is that for my particular situation they were quick, professional and efficient. For anyone that's ever dealt with poor customer service/support, they will KNOW that it's worth much more than the cost of the extension! Thanks guys, keep up the great work!
Wow! Finally an extention that is more then advertised.
The product works perfectly ans support is very good.
I had installed the free version first and when I upgraded to the paid version the lightbox quit funtioning properly.
Support was fast and friendly. Had me up and running in minutes. (I hadn't installed the plugin...ooppss..)
I notices Artetics has lots of other extentions. I will be back soon!!
Thanks, Vince

The module and plugin are really wonderfull! You can do lots of beautiful things with it. The support is even better! I had a problem with the cloud carrousel with showing well in my website and they put extra lines in my CSS very quickly and very friendly. There is now a very little conflict between the carrousel and my template, but I am sure that the know an answer for it. It is a great extension for Joomla. Thank you.
Nice and easy to use website.
I wanted a module which could show a thumbnail from an internal folder. This thumbnail needed to change after a few seconds and be able to popup a lightbox when clicked.
When i tried this module i found out that this was not possible yet. So i made a thread in there forum and after a few min i got a response. He then made a special made package for me which did what i mentioned above.
So excellent support got an reply back in a few minutes. And when the problem was clear he provided me with a special made package that solved my problem.

I absolutely love this extension, as it provides a great image pop-up effect that looks great on any website. The developers are extremely quick to respond to any requests for assistance and always get to the bottom of problems by offering a solution.
I'm always hesitant to pay for commercial plugins, with Joomla being open-source, but Art Sexy Lightbox is one plugin that is worth way more than the pocket-change they charge.

Having purchased this product I hit a bit of a technical issue, my hosting provider didn't support the curl library that is needed. So I sent a support email and within a matter of minutes I had been repsonded to! In less than a day the code had been changed to work around the issue I was having, and my site was up and running.
I'm totally blown away by the quality of service, which is sadly a rare thing these days, but what a treat when you do get quality after sales support :D
Don't hestitate to buy from these guys!

I am just a beginner with Joomla but Art Sexy Lightbox did exactly what it said, it's easy to install. Works well and is customizable.
email support is amazing.
email support is amazing.
Plugged straight in, I had the gallery working within 5 mins. Slight problem with a minor conflict with my superfish menu, but the support was superb and issue resolved within a day. Recommended.
You will love this shadow box. It is very flexible and easy to use! I've used many different joomla extensions, but this is the first I felt strongly enough to write a review on.
The technical support is amazing!!! They addressed my custom request for a feature that the module didn't have within a few hours and had me new code within the day!!! SUPERB!!!
You won't regret purchasing this lightbox!
