<p><strong>Setting up the module:</strong></p>
<p>Adjust the settings as desired in the module manager. Change your layout,  width, height transition speed, text lengths, colors, etc. to whatever settings  you wish. Once you have completed this it's time to enter the images into your  content items.<br /><br /><strong>Tagging an image to a content item:</strong></p>
<ul class="ul_star">
<li> Edit any content article that you wish and look for the html source button,    most editors will look similar to this:<br /> </li>
<br /><img src="images/html_button.png" border="0" /><br /><br />
<li>Once you have located the button you will need to enter the following code    at the very top of the article's code:   <br /><br /> &lt;span style="display:none" class="s5_image_news_img"&gt;http://www.yoursite.com/image.jpg&lt;/span&gt;    <br /><br /> Enter the code exactly as you see it except change the url with the exact url of your image. You can use jpg's, gif's or png's   <br /> example:   <br /><br />  </li>
<img src="images/source.png" border="0" /><br /><br /> 
<li>Once you have the code in place simply save the article and repeat the    process for all the articles you wish to display in the module. </li>
<li>Note that the article must be published to a section and category and that    section and category must also be published in order for the article to    appear.</li>
<li>After you have tagged the images in your article enter the article ID's    into the backend of the module under the parameter that says "<span>Set    article ID's"</span></li>
</ul>
