Adding a Scrolling Text feature to a web page is great way to pack a great deal of information into one small area. In addition the animation introduced by the scrolling / moving text will attract the visitors eye to your most important messages.

Although we have named this product Scrolling Text it also allows you to embed images within the text. This feature makes this product far more versatile than just a plain text scroller.
