This has to be the most useful extension available for content presentation. It seems like there are no limitations to the kind of layout you can create with this superb extension. I am even able to create selectable content via category triggers - bypassing the (ridiculous) need to create endless menu items. It's a paid app, but well worth it. (If you use K2, there is a matching Zenkit template-within-a-template system.)

I've been using JB Zentools and Joomlabamboo templates for several years now. I have also used others. I have learned the hard way that I can use any code I want, but it's value is measured by the support I get when things don't go just right. I have never had better support than I have had with Joomlabamboo. And when my customer depends on me getting it fixed, that's where the rubber meets the road. I cannot afford NOT to use JB.

This code is spectacular. The developer really has an eye for composition and good UI. Support is also exemplary. Their templates are also quite beautiful!

This tool has so many configuration options, and many different layouts. This one module can be used in so many different ways. The administration interface is easy to use, and the options are intuitive. It's good to use the demo site to help guide the layouts, but it's a tool that will keep surprising you by how clever it is.

We are currently upgrading a site to 2.5 and I am using this module at least 3 times on the home page and once on an inner page.

It is a slider, gallery, news reel +++++ all in one, and it looks fantastic.

And by a great Aussie team.

Ok, love fest over :D

I join Joomlabamboo just for this module! The flexible it gives you is unbelievable. And when it came to creating my responsive gallery to adjust to my users device (Tablet, iPhone or desktop) it just works! But Zentools allows you to do so much that it hard to believe its just a module and not a component! Since finding this module I have placed this module in everything. Rarely do you find a module or component that just works without keeping you up at night when it comes to the developers that post their extension here, but trust me this baby works! And if you run into any problem Anthony or "A" Man is there to shoot you an answer for any problem you may have. But once you get the hang of how this module works you are going to put it in every new project you start! Just logon to Joomlabamboo.com to see this baby in action!

Plus they have the most Responsive Templates for Joomla 1.5 and 2.5 on the market: Platform, Lifestyle, Colourshift, Responsive, Epicure and Vintage that have my clients thinking I am a Joomla Website Building God!

Every now and then when you log-on to Joomla.org you come across something special and this just happen to that something special!

I've been using Zen Tools for a while now and am glad to see it finally appear in the JED. It's a great tool - easy to use and versatile. I find it particularly handy for portfolios.
