Pullllleeeease somebody help me- I have been working on this for hours and hours- I have tried both the jcarousel block and cck slideshow and I get to a certain point and am lost. Documentation always seems to make assumptions that people already know certain things. Not good for beginners. I love drupal and am grateful for it but trying to do anyting out of the ordinary is frustrating for beginners.

Anyway- on the CCK slideshow - I have uploaded everything but I cant enable the slideshow creator because it says the j-querry plugin is missing- I know that in drupal 6 jquery is in the misc folder however where do I put the plugin? no matter where I put it it still says it is missing. I am ready to give up on ever getting a slideshow on this site. I admit I could be stupid but please could someone help???

I'm not familiar with the CCK slideshow module, but it could be referring to this module? http://drupal.org/project/jquery_plugin

Have you tried views and views slideshow? Take a look at this video http://www.drupaltherapy.com/node/70
This helped me to build a simple slideshow that grabs images from certain nodes and plays them in a block.

Hi Mishel,

You can also give the Dynamic display block module a try, to make simple slideshows.
