Wonderful Component! by hvus, September 2, 2008
All my users (more than 3000) love post using this component..

But... recently my site was updated to joomla 1.5.x and this component is not ready yet.. even in legacy.. I hope the developer could have time to deliver the new version.. because all my users and me miss this wonderful component.

Thank you very much


Sweet but tough... by snadowitz, February 24, 2008
Installed first time, configured like a dream BUT - needs some work on the "customisability". Difficult for the non-savvy to change the look and feel. Looks very different in I.E browsers - FF handles it perfectly. Needs more option to allow a description for each photo.


Simple Yet Effective by jaredude, February 15, 2008
I used this on a website for simple rating of hot gadgets. It does exactly what I needed it to do. No problems. Easy to use and runs fast. Excellent component and modules.

Our Members Requested This and It's Hot by RandyMac, December 13, 2006

Hot Or Not2
=============

Version Reviewed: 2.0.2

Installation:
=============
4/5 - The install process is simple if you have installed components and modules before.

Features:
=========
5/5 - This component has most all features right now for making a Hot or Not photo Gallery available on your Joomla site. The developers seem to add features and have many modules available which makes this system very flexible. It's exactly what our members have been waiting for us to add. It also features admin features and settings to stop abuse etc.

Configuration:
==============
4/5 - The configuration is relatively easy if you are familiar with Joomla components and configuring modules in the positions on pages that you want to display these add-on features.

Performance:
============
4/5 - So far the performance appears to be fine, but there are not too many photos on our site so far to test it for load, display times and user performance etc.

Support:
=========
4/5 - We just installed this Hot or Not2 extension and modules and so far we have not had to contact the developers, so we can't really comment too much. But considering it is available for free, we aren't expecting the developer to answer every question we might have. From what we see on their site, and from the change log from version to version, it appears as though the fix bugs regularly, and answer and support this component for the active community of Joomla sites using it.

Overall Rating:
===============
4 out of 5 - If you want a Hot or Not feature on your Joomla site, this is it. A must have for Hot or Not. We would give it a 5 out of 5 if you used it for a while, but so far it works great!

We are currently testing this new HOT or NOT section before we make it available on a full time basis to the public and our members, and we expect that this to be a popular feature for our members and site visitors.

Thanks to the Hot or Not development team for making this component and modules available for Joomla.

RandyMac, ADMIN


Difficult to skin by mahuti, March 21, 2006
This component has some nice modules available to it, has the ability to display recent image in a module elsewhere on the site, as well as other nice, simple features. Unfortunately it is difficult to reskin the included "hot or not" thermometer. It seems to work well, but it is not a simple task to reskin according to your site's design sensibilities.
