XMod Pro Module Kit - jCarousel: Versatile Content Slider / Scroller

As an example kit to show off the flexibility of XMod Pro templates when creating module items for DotNetNuke like a featured content rotator / slider, we have put together an example using our example data set and a popularjQuery Content Slider, jCarousel from sorgalla.com.
 

Module Description:

This is a great item to use as a basis for showing off featured articles, pages, detail items, newest text/entries slideshow, etc. More than just an image gallery, it is intended to showcase featured content in a compact area. In this example setup, items marked as Featured in the database are shown in the slider.
 

Uses:

It can be used to show it's own data, or it can be used to show the newest articles from an article module, newest blog posts, business listings, etc. from any existing module records. Use this as a base code to create your own customized module or use it as a resource for tips and tricks for building your own XMod Pro solution!
