News Module

Hello,

I am trying to find a news module that will display the full article on the front page (as a block). So far I installed a few News Modules (News 1.44, Altern8 News, etc) but none have the option of placing the full news article on the main page. Do I have to hack the news module or are there modules that will let me place an article on the front page?

I am not interested in having users post articles, just me (the admin). Maybe I am looking at the wrong modules? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Alex.

Hey, I did install AMS as well, it worked, but I still could not figure out how to make it so that I can post to my site's main page (top page). I guess what I really need is some simple news script where only the admin can post the news..

I like how AMS looks but yeh if you can tell me how to make it so that my news are displayed on my main page it would be great..
