The module is nice, very powerfull.
Demo is great.
But it does not worked for me on Joomla! 1.6. ;(
No content is been displaying, no matter what category did I use.
Some times the following error appear: "this.fxItems[index] is undefined".
I hope all this is Joomla! 1.6 issue.

This is an excellent article slideshow. It's beautiful and works well with my installation of Joomla! 1.6.1.
Also, it doesn't conflict with the dropdown menus of my template like some other slideshows did.
A tip:
If you don't want the Title link to lead to the article you're using for slideshow purpose only, you can solve it by 301 redirect in you .htaccess. I have an Article Category that is only for slideshow purpose and not displayed elsewhere. However, each article in the slideshow category is promoting another category so I solved it by using the 301. Hope this is useful for some of you :-)
I find it incredible that this one was for free + they have excellent demos and instructions!

This is one of the Best Slideshow extensions . I liked it and it works perfectly
I've upgraded from Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 1.6 and found out after hours and hours of troubleshooting that the mod don't work well on Joomla 1.6!!!
I reallty like the extention (the way it worked on 1.5 Exelent.. really!)
The thing I experienced is that trying to add the mod to a position results in a crash of the entire J1.6 site. I've tried an other mod (mod_homepageslideshow1.6) and this one works fine!
Although I like the LOF Article Slideshow better.
I'll keep on trying to get the job done. When iI find a solution I'll share it a.s.a.p.
In the mean time I really hope you people from Land Of Coders find the code to the solution.
I think I speak on behalf of many users.
Thanks in advance.
Keep up the good work.
Stay in touch!

After trying several "News Sliders" and pulling my hair out trying to figure them out and make them work, this is the first one to work exactly as I was hoping.
Between downloading, installing, answer a few of the parameters (which were straight forward as easy to figure out) and then viewing the results, if it took me 4 minutes, I think I would be estimating a little long.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you ! ! !

I installed this on a forum site today to display blog entries. Very easy to set up and use! Since I have only been using joomla for almost a year I really appreciate how easy it was to get this installed and running. The only enhancement I would add would be the ability to select sections instead of individual categories.
