Es realmente lo que necesitaba, Tarde 3 minuto en instalarlo y que funcione. Supera si lo que quieres es un simple popup con una imagen, como en mi caso, a cualquiera de los hiper sofisticados que lo anteceden. Lo Pones . Funciona.

Amazing plugin!
This plugin is a great example of how to create very intuitive and effective plugin without numerous unnecessary options. Just great popup with all settings that are important and good UI.

Good out of the box
Very nice plugin. Free version does the work and paid version is not expensive and adds interesting functions. Very customizable : you can build a popup with or without overlay, a banner, a small or big popup... More options in the free version than much others. Thanks to the dev !

this one works!
i tried some popular ones and guess what - they fail to work in my peculiar website, not to mention some of them are downright horrible in design and function (like - start by registering in our spammy page OR just freezes the whole thing for a few seconds and baaaam a ton of tasteless presets and options of no use).and this one's just perfect, does what advertised in a most tidy way imaginable. bravo!!!
