@Dr.osamA: Sorry, however ForumSlider doesn't support the Arabic language. If you manage to modify the mod to get it working for you in Arabic, please do let me know.
@abdelali: Please stay tuned for the next release, we plan on including support for vbadvanced CMS in it.
@Juggernaut: Thanks . Currently is just parses the XML files and looks for <img>...</img> tabs. With vBulletin using the BBCode [img] should automatically convert that into <img>...</img> when you post a topic or thread.
@iyama: That is a nice slider. I like the idea of it having a shadow behind the images.
@teamsupra: If this mod is over your price tag, feel free to develop your own and use that. Please do keep in mind that this mod is only at early stages of development and is under active development. So you can expect a lot more features in the future.
For those curious, here is a teaser on what you can expect in the next update:
[Bug Fix] Recognising the forumslider ad as a separate slide item.
[Feature] Title will also be a hyperlink.
[Feature] Pause slider on mouse over.
[Feature] Two additional templates.
[Feature] Multiple sliders per license to one site.
This is pretty expensive btw when there is another mod thats half the price, i wont link it but here is the features ....please tell me how yours is better because I am interested and may buy it even at that price due to the other mod works but would like more features.
The other mod: (How does yours compare??)

Please keep in mind ForumSlider is a very new thing and is under constant development. Currently ForumSlider can do all the above feature (however the forums threads have to be setup as a RSS Feed before hand). Feel free to wait a week or so and check back, I am confident we will have a new update by then. Also here are some future features we want to include:
Intelligent Image Substitution - A robust system that will search an image bank (with thousands of images) and find a image which matches very closely to the content, using keyword comparison. This is only for those items in a RSS Feed which don't have images.
Flexible Slider Customization - Allows you to fully customize your slider how you wont it - without requiring you to write a single line of code. We plan on having both an online slider designer and a downloadable version programmed in either C++ or C#.
