Can someone identify this add-on?

Hello all,

My client has asked me to add a scrolling banner at the top of his site, so I've been looking at other Zen Cart user's sites to see if I can find anything that matches that description. After a bit of hunting, I found what I am looking for here:

http://www.brendonscomputers.com/shop/

Can someone please tell me how to do something similar? Is this an existing module, or something else?

Thanks

and take a look at the Digital shop template It should give you an idea and I think there's an addon in the free software section to.

Found the template, however it didn't tell me how to repeat it. Looked through free software section with words like 'scrolling', 'banner', 'header', etc. Did not have any luck with that either. :dontgetit

Google zencart magic slideshow. It doesn't appear to be free, and it (or possibly something else) really slows down the page load on the site you referenced, so I'd double check that after you install it.

Personally, I think a slideshow in that position has quickly become a trite web design cliche, and makes sites look ordinary, even common.

I know, I know, but sometimes you just have to obey the boss. Thanks for the links, I'll try them out and see what's what. :cool:
