This is what I did to create the ini file. I went to the module, clicked on "here" and it took me to
catamaranguru.com/modules/mod_ariimageslider/ariimageslider.ini. I copied that file, opened it with notepad++ and typed in the file names, descriptions, links, and alt text. Then I saved it and ftp'd it to the same folder as the images. I have just now repeated that process and it still does not work. What do you mean "incorrect format"? The code, the UTF-8 setting? I saw the theoweert earlier, when you sent it, but I did not use that file.
