I have been looking for a module that will allow me to do what you can see on this bbc section highlighting the elections, the slideshow is done with fade in/out in the jquery fashion:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/in_depth/americas/2008/vote_usa_2008/default.stm

I know there are several modules that allow me to create slideshows, but which ones allow for this effect with controls to move forward and pause/play the slideswhow as needed?

Views rotator module works nicely for this.

Isn't there a module that allows to create a gallery by telling it where the images are, and then we can call the gallery inside content the way you can do it with Views [views:vews_name]

I see the views_slideshow allows for something similar, but the images have to be nodes themselves.

Actually views rotator rotates through rows in a views result set so it can display nodes (as teaser or full node) or a set of fields.

But those fields have to be part of existing nodes, is that correct?

That is correct.

Hi,

You can try the dynamic display block module.

For Drupal 6.

With fading and a lot more effects.
A pager to go to the different slides.
Can use a directory as input for the images.

You can see a demo at ddblock.myalbums.biz
