This area of the demo is a RokSprocket widget. You will need to do two things to prepare this widget so that it looks similar to the one in the demo.

First, you will need to create the RokSprocket Widget. You can do this by navigating to Administration -> RokSprocket Admin and creating a new Mosaic widget.

You can find out more about RokSprocket and how to set up and modify widgets by visiting our RokSprocket documentation.
