If I want to have same sort of look than at the demopage, but wish to have most of the items shown from one category only (i.e. news), how to do that? Not, it shows only one item with picture and some intro text, and the rest just as a link. How to make it show more items from one category with image/intro text?

If you want to do this, you have to custom your JA-News module to show it in your own way. Please post a paid request, some freelancers will help you.

At the price they charge I would not suggest this to anyone that use Joomla as recreation.
FYI gold membership do cost you and you get no service for that.more of a gimic to get newbie to waste there money.

From 1 category easy just create more section link to that category however you will have to edit your index.php as it take information from category.

Thank you lafrance for your comments.

Anyway I managed to find correct piece of code to change, and I would like to share this with others in case they need it: in mod_janews.php at around line 387 (might differ a little from original as I have modified the file in other ways too) find: if ($i == 0){ and comment it (change to: // if ($i == 0){ )

Then few lines down (around line 401) find the closing bracet and else statement, and comment them:
/*}else{
?>
<li>
<a title=”<?php echo $row->introtext1; ?>” href=”<?php echo $link; ?>”>
<?php echo $row->title; ?></a>
</li>
<?php
} */

the rest you can manage through modules properties
