Only took a few minutes for a newb such as myself to set this up. Plenty of options but straightforward to configure how you want it. The only tweak I would like are 'radar buttons' on the image so the user can select the image/item they want rather than wait/scroll
It is EXTREMELY simple to use, works in all browsers and installs like a dream. I reccommend this when you need a simple, quick solution ;)
I have been using this module on my old Joomla 1.5 sites so when I upgraded I need a module that would not mess up the site.
After trying a lot of modules that use javascript, mootools & jquery, I decided to forget about how to work around all the conflicts and just use ONE module to cover the whole site.
Forget about the Banner Component, Forget about banner rotators, forget about paying money and then waste a week fixing a conflict.
This module is all you need as it can be linked to any page,
opening to the same window or a new window, you can set the images to move in all directions because this module has many controls for speed, transition, and size
.
This a very powerful and useful module to use.
Works straight from the box and it's FREE.

I love this plugin. I once went through dozens to stumble upon an older version of this one, and then again today for 2.5. Not sure why I wasted time looking elsewhere.
Everything from this developer is always excellent, this proves to be no different.

I've tried quite a few image galleries and slideshows in the past few years. The QUALITY of this mod was very evident.
First of all, it worked! I'm leery of anything with javascript, mootools or jquery because they can mess up a site unless the developer really knows what he's doing.
This module has many controls for speed, transition, and size, PLUS you can add links for each image and specify whether they open in the same window or a new window. You can even turn off specific images (you don't have to have all of them running.) To have so much CONTROL over each slide makes this a very powerful module.
Also, I didn't have any problems with size or placement. It looked amazing from the moment I turned it on.
Thank you, Thank you!

Flawless install on my 2.5 site, easy configuration, works perfect in both position-15 and position-12 beez 5 template. Thank you very much.
This module is great. Really easy to use. I'm very new to using Joomla and previous to my current job had zero web design training. Figuring out how to build a website from scratch has been hard but this module was really easy to use and also looks very nice as well. Good work!
