I am looking into the options for a home page of a newspaper site. The basic design we are looking at is similar to the news.fedex.com site. This is the functionality we are looking for and haven't seen one with it. I have looked at slideshow, but it doesn't seem to be exactly what we are looking for. This also could have been custom built, but I'm not sure. I like the ability to click on a number and be taken to that article. Thanks in advance.

news.fedex.com is definitely

news.fedex.com is definitely a cool website, wonder why the theme is not center aligned though. From the firebug interface clearly the News block with numbers is achieved by using javascript, not sure if it is a custom module or an existing module. But I am sure you can achieve it pretty simple by having a custom view - block theme and loading the elements in javascript.

Please provide more details of your requirements and can surely help.

Some interesting links while I was surfing about the news.van.fedex.com website:

Not sure how the Views Rotator module works but you could check it out.
