Image Slider

The Image Slider module enables you to add a slide show with multiple images and various transition effects. The following image formats are supported: GIF, JPEG, and PNG.

Images are not resized automatically; for this reason, we recommend that you upload images of the same dimensions. Otherwise, the slide show will not look good.

When adding images, you can add descriptions to them and link the images to specific pages of your website.

The following transition effects are supported:

• Random
• Slice down and to the right
• Slice down and to the left
• Slice up and to the right
• Slice up and to the left
• Slice up and down
• Slice up and down and to the left
• Fold
• Fade
• Box random
• Box rain
• Reverse box rain
• Growing box rain
• Reverse growing box rain

The effect names might tell you little about how the effects look, so it is better to see them in action. To do this, add the Image Slider module, upload at least two images, go to the module settings (Settings tab), and select an effect from the Transition effect menu.
