The BC-Galleryview / mod_bc_galleryview Joomla gallery / slideshow module shows images from directories or from VirtueMart products, if desired, with name and/or description. Complete multilingual support and many more features.
The conception as Joomla-module enables you to use the "Modules Anywhere" Joomla-Plugin to embed a gallery in every content-element you like!
In addition it is completely "Joom!Fish" compatible so you may even simply copy the module's parameters for another language and just define a different images-directory for every language if your images embed text.
Key-Features:
