Hello,
I have a website that has a number of items on the front page. Is there a module out there, or does anyone know of a way to have a block cycle through items promoted to front page? I'd kind of like to do what the Steam does:
http://steampowered.com/v/index.php
Have a block where every few seconds, a new story appears. But, having little blocks you can click on as well to move around those stories.

I don't know if there's something out there already - it would have to be done in javascript/JQuery to have it happen while the person is on the page. If you want it randomly on load though it's pretty simple to do with categories and views.

jCarousel module might be what you need. http://drupal.org/project/ jcarousel

Any idea how I can do that, having it show anything promoted to the front page? Teasers, rather than just an image. I found viewscarousel, but there's no documentation what so ever.
