only came looking for a new slideshow / rotator recently when I was making my website responsive. Played with 5 others before settling on this one. And as a relative novice was delighted that this one was so easy to set up and use - it even has an image downloader and URL linking in the set up.
Discovering it would also do full screen slide show behind my website was just simply astounding
It also works with responsive layouts properly when other "responsive" rotators didnt - especially when multiple instances were used on a page
The only bit I would change is the navigation dots, they sit outside the image and waste a bit of screen space - but I am building a tightly focussed site where space is a premium. Love it!

I used this CK slide show on a few sites already, and I am loving it.
The only slide show with FULL SCREEN option - just WOW!!!
There are some good free slide shows out there, but the CK has some nice features, and it has really flexible customization and easy to use.
Thank you for the developers!

This slideshow is simply great! I am new to Joomla and it was easy to set up and get running. Less than 10 minutes and was able to completely customize my site. It was so easy and the results were so good I decided to buy the manual to support the project.
I've tried this extension for my site and I was really enthusiastic about the slideshow ease of setup and performance.
A minor problem with thumbnails not displayed when using SEF urls has been fixed in less than one day, after a nice mail exchange with the Author.
A great extension, with an excellent support.

I've used slideshow_ck on my passion-usa.net website for large (100-200) slideshows. This extension is very easy to use, yet allows great customization. I would definitely recommend using the plugin (it carries a small fee) in connection with the extension. it makes things easier, with a richer feature set at the same time. I like them both and intend to use them for a long time.
I still have an outstanding support issue, but it may be caused by IE9 being a non-standard browser more than this extension. Anyway, it's currently under investigation, and it won't decrease my rating.
All in all, the rookie in me loves it. Great job, Cedric !

This is an excellent module.
I personaly used it for a fullscreen background slideshow which is supported simply by turning on an option!
Sadly I can't make the regular slideshow to work but it's an issue with my jQuery that I'm trying to troubleshoot.
Many thanks to the dev!

This Module worked very well for me. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a easy to use slideshow module
This is a brilliant extension. I was having trouble with a slider extension not loading on my live site and was under pressure to get it working. I eventually gave up on it and Installed this slideshow ck extension instead and everything worked perfectly. Was quick to install and easy to use. I will definately be using this in future!
This is arguably the best Joomla slideshow module out there. I tried many of them. You can always argue about the design, but this one is very stable, responsive, works with videos as well,...
Moreover, the author takes good care of his product and updates it regularly. I had an issue with jQuery 1.9.1. Overnight he adjusted the module code and created a new version which worked perfectly.
I can recommend to all others to use it and buy plugin for very little fee to support the project.

I've tried two other gallery extensions before Slideshow CK and this is the one I'm sticking with. It was easy to implement and works flawlessly. It took some experimentation to get the styling options to work as I wanted (probably due more to my inexperience than any fault of the module) but otherwise a very successful gallery. My site is pretty text-heavy, and I use Slideshow CK to add random images to articles for graphic interest.
Overall a simple and effective module. Thanks to the developer!

This module, it's complete in itself, i really liked it, and this is my first review of something on all J Extensions just to show how much i appreciated this.
I don't know I have quickly checked the support and the only similar issue I found there is falang with this slideshow ck. Mine is with joomfish, I absolutely cannot translate this module with joomfish the buttons save, save&close and cancel become useless (it works fine with any other module...). Well I will post on the forum to see if anyone can helps, otherwise it's one of the best extension I have tested in 3 years!
For me, it's the most esthetic et customizable one. (forgive my english, I'm french). Works perfectly and first and formost, the support is really nice. When I got a Jquery problem with my template, I received the solution the same day.
I'd just like, for the next update, to allow users to have fullsceen overlay when they clic on a picture.
Thanks to Cedric for this wonderfull extension.

i really love this one among others
first of all :
it's free
2th:
it's the best free
3rd:
also it stands in a high rank even in commercial ones
but i wish to see this features in future releases:
1- more caption options
like: resizable captions , ability to choose caption place in slide (i mean with just adding x y nums) , different shapes , caption font size and effect with user friendly options
2- ability to show two or more pictures with every picture own caption in one slide
3- customizable pagination and navigation in control panel
4- adding base compononet and setting slides there , then call back them with simple modules in wherever in site
5- one good thing for having component is capturing the clicks made on the slides , so we can find out which slide had been more attractive for users and we can then make more of them
6- ability to show picture and article mixing , like one picture with it's own caption on the left side , and to articles that share the space , place on the right side , number of articles and pictures and their position on slide would be editable
anyway , even without the above features , still your work is great and i suggest it to whoever that look for a beautiful slideshow even in backend
thank you so much

After trying several slideshow modules, I finally found the module that fit at the best with my needs. Easy to install, straight away to set and great results.
It is really a wonderful extension.
It is really a wonderful extension.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I only wanted a simple fading slideshow of images which was responsive and this does exactly that...plus a whole lot more which will be great for use on other sites.
It is really easy to setup and configure, I had it working in no time.
Spent a few extra dollars for the documentation.
Thanks for this awesome module. :)
