Dynamic display block slideshow module for Drupal

About a month ago I followed the advanced ddblock tutorial to get one set up. After completing the video I couldn't get the block to be displayed. So I forgot about it moved on to other things and now I'm back to ddblock. I scratched everything and started over just to get the same results. I noticed some people asking if the ddblock worked on their specific theme. So I switched to garland real quick to see if anything was different and changed the preprocessed code. Go figure it works in garland, doesn't work in my theme. I'm using the theme "waffles." And would like to continue using waffles. What exactly makes it incompatible with other themes? I can't seem to figure it out, I've searched all over and there are some similar issues out there but not exact and I don't want to follow a path that leads to more problems. The url to the page that it is located on is http://nazbrassmedia.com/home. Any help would be greatly appreciated, hope to hear back soon. Thanks!
