Not only does the contact module include every option the content module features, but you can also position all your form elements from xml and swap out your send and clear buttons from XML .
Background Module
The background module allows you to choose to add a different background for each and every page on your site. You can load a tiled image background, a full-screen image background, a external swf background, or a full screen video background! And we added the ability to load youtube videos for your background!
Slide show Module
All New Slideshow module now supports, image slides, swf slides, video slides, and optional slogan text for each slide!
Well we went all out on this slideshow module with TONS of new features! Our previous slideshow was a simple
slide-show that loaded new images for each slide, and had basic html text info for each slide. Well this is totally
different, now each slide can be an image (.jpg .gif .png), or a swf, or a video (.flv,.mov,.mp4). We also got rid
of the info text and each slide now has the option to add slogan text. You can add, position, and style multiple lines per slide.
We also set the slideshow up so you can specify an interval (number of seconds) for each slide from xml. So if you
want one slide to only appear for 4 seconds and say another slide for 12 seconds, you can do that by simply adjusting the interval
parameter in XML . XML options also include the ability to autostart your slideshow, skin the preloader bg color and preloader text
color, enable or disable slide buttons, position and skin the colors of slide buttons. The slide buttons also have an autohide
feature, so if the user hovers over the slideshow and the mouse is inactive for a couple seconds, the slide buttons will fade out
until the mouse is moved again! You can also add slideshows to any of your content pages, and set the width and height of your
slideshow from XML . Any of your images you add can also call a slideshow popup.
MP3 Module
This mp3 module can be enabled/disabled from xml. And is fully skin able from XML . You can set the initial volume level from XML , set all of your text, album art, and mp3 urls. Completely customize in minutes! And now
you have the option to have it animate in from the header or footer.
