The latest version of kXGallery has been out now for a couple of weeks, both on Snowcovered and DNN Market Place. Read more on our Modules->kXGallery page here. I happen to update the information page with the documentation aswell. This has been hanging for a while, but now its there.

Well, lets summarize the year 2007. Not did we just enter the DNN development market. We managed to establish a name and reputation among our customers, developing stable modules and have reliable and quick support. This has lead to many requests of making custom modules which we gladly are trying to help out with. A negative side of that is that there is not as frequent releases on our modules, since we are already working overtime. However we managed to release kXScroll v1.4 two weeks before christmas, which we hardly had any time to promote. Hopefully you have checked it out already.
2008 holds many new challenges. In Januar and Februar, our focus will be at kXGallery. We have so much new cool features added to it, and more to come. As you can see at the demo page we are dog fooding v1.2 at the moment. The new features are:
- Hovering effect on thumb nails (optional of course)
- Added description field.
- Enhanced the QuickTime support. Now it works as the WMV support in v1.1
- Added CSS examples to put focus on how customizable the design for the gallery are.
We will also move into a new location, since this is a kinda slow hosting at the moment. The server is located in Sweden, but our customer base is mainly located in U.S, so we will go on and see what hosting options we have "over there".
Well happy new year, and see you out there!

Well, the new release of kXGallery was well received last week at Snowcovered.com. So well that it has entered the charts (No 4 at Hot New Modules and now at No40 at BestSellers). We are of course very proud of this, but we will not sit back and enjoy. No, we will try to have more frequency in adding new versions. There are a lot of plans going on for this module, since it has great capabilities that we are yet not using. Another thing is that there is hard competition out there with Gallery modules, you really have to pinpoint down what the user wants, and are willing to pay for. Please let us know what you are looking for. We have received som good feedback so far, and we know that the video options are something that people really want. And of course injecting existing modules.

I just added our new flash banner to the About section here. This banner will be used among our partners to attract more customers hopefully. My flash experience is a little bit low I must say, but the result came out nice after all.

A lot of people has been emailing us asking about the roadmap of kXScroll. When will the next version be out and what does it contain? Well, we intend to release one version with approximately 5-7 weeks cycles. That means that the v1.3 is soon to be hitting the stores (well, the store as we only support Snowcovered). The following improvements will be done:
- Warning messagebox when changing content without saving in edit scroll will appear.
- Add HTML rich text boxes in settings, where HTML content shall be edited.
- Provide option to set left and right arrows on left side resp. right side of scroll.
- Provide option to set up and down links above and below the scroll.
- Looping/wrapping content will be there.

There has been a couple of weeks since my last post here. This week has been busy with releasing v1.1 of kXGallery, which contains more and better support for Windows Media Player.
We have also began to establish a partner agreement with a swedish company called 3wPortal who is a company selling complete CMS solutions including hosting. Our modules is going to be a part of their service package that they provide to their customers. If you are looking for a stable hosting solution located in Sweden, check it out.

Hello,
I have not updated this blog for a long time now. Main reason for that is that I have been away on parental leave for a couple of days. My son Isak was born on the 14th of October, 6.30 in the morning .
Today I added a new demo for kXScroll. By tweaking it a bit, you can use kXScroll as a css tabular module. The next release for kXScroll will contain a couple of new features as well as improvements. You will be able to loop content, and also put out links on the left and right side/under and above of the scroll at the same time. We will also improve the settings dialog and add some more user friendly controls to it.
The gallery module (kXGallery), all versions are out now at snowcovered. This afternoon I added some more demos to prove that you can use it for displaying streamed wmv content, and also showing that you can incorporate a youtube video nicely. Check it out.

Finally the release of kXGallery is here. A little bit delayed, but we wanted to add more functionality such as bulk-insert and rescaling options to be able to provide a strong product.
kXGallery is based on a javascript library called Grey Box, which is licensed under LGPL. This library is great, and provides many functions that I think that for instance Lightbox. Check it out here
