The module is available for download, under the View my downloads area and can be installed via the default Joomla! installer: Extensions > Install/Uninstall, browse the file and click "Upload and install".

The module has two modes: simple and advanced. The only difference is how the events slide show:

It is to be noted that the event image that is displayed in the slider, is grabbed from the configured Event Icon option (Components > RSEvents! > Events > edit a event > Event Info).
