I spent some time wondering why the example view's themed blocks did not change appearance. Seems you need to go get

Dynamic Display Block theme files:

* vsd-upright10-60-V1-2.zip
from
http://ddblock.myalbums.biz/download

Thought I would suggest the for the readme and documentation.

This module is great, and the docs are voluminous. They could use some reorganizing, it's a lot to absorb and there is history involved.

I always want to improve documentation for the modules.
Please give your feedback where it can be improved.

I personally think that it would be nice if the theme downloads were included in the package rather than being a separate download. Then in the readme instructions you would simply tell people to move the themes folder if they wanted to override the example the themes. In other words you should make it so that the system looks for themes in both locations so the examples work out of the box but then you can also override the examples in your theme if you would like.

Right now when you install the examples it appears that they are broken until you go read through the documentation and find the difficult to find theme download and upload it to your theme folder. There must be a simpler way for people who aren't so smart to figure these things out.

There are several reasons that the slideshow themes are not included (yet) in the module.

When users read the readme.txt they can read they need to download and install the themes.

Suggestions where the module and documentation can be improved always welcome.
