I wish it was more identical to the newflash module, however it doesn't not give article titles a more bold distinctive font like the regular newflash module does. They just take on the regular font styling. It makes my feed look bad so I had to go back to standard newflash.
All I want is something IDENTICAL to newflash but for sections.

I do not understand why in 2010 people are still coding the output of components and modules using HTML tables, versus a compliance-based design, this is easy to correct by modifying the built-in "_item.php" file. There was a syntax error in the IMG SRC (missing trailing brackets), which was generating a validation error, sans the table-based design which shouldn't really be used in the first place.
Overall, a decent module and while its name is "Section Newsflash", the ability to specify a section OR a category would be a nice enhancement. This, coupled with the bullets and a DIV/SPAN based output, this module could be termed, "Enhanced Newsflash", etc.

I love the extra features that you have over the standard newsflash module.
I made one small change that allowed me to use the order of the articles in the backend instead of the date they were published. to do this I changed helper.php:(line 95)
"' ORDER BY a.publish_up DESC';" to "' ORDER BY a.ordering ASC';"
Thanks for a great module!
