SlideshowFX
I tried different extensions to display Picasa galleries and albums. This one is the best.
PROS:
1) It has a a multilingual support!
2) I use the module (widget) to display a list of my albums in a slideshow (or "news display") manner. So the user can click it and get directly to the album which is a link to a menu in my site.
3) It's possible to have a mulitpage layout.
4) The voting system is nice and functional.
5) The support is excellent! The author is eager to accept all the ideas and requests for the improvement of this product and does a great job to release new versions of the product quite quickly in a short period of time!

CONS:
Only one. The plugin & module always embed code in your site that shows invisible copyright info and links to the auhtor's website.

Thanks for your review.
Since more than one year, users satisfaction is my priority.
As of version SlideshowFx Pro 3.06, and SlideshowFx Picasa Widget Pro 1.03, you have the possibility to remove copyright and back link.
Please contact support for details.

News Highlighter GK4
This is not the first module I tested for news flash. The major advantage of this module is that it works perfect on all modern browsers. Other modules I tried to use had visual problems in some browsers.

Weather GK4
Glad that it displays weather in local language! That's the best feature I like! Unfortunately, I have some disaligment problems of the weather forecast elements (that's why I give 4 stars). Backend CSS settings didn't help. Probably I have to change the layout manually. Anyway the module has transparent background and suits perfect for any design template.

ContentPassword
Very very useful plugin!
1) Works great... but only under PHP5. For PHP4 users you must modify file mospasswort.php located in "plugins/content" directory: change line #37:

$mosConfig_lang = &JFactory::getLanguage()->getBackwardLang();

to

$mosTemp=&JFactory::getLanguage();
$mosConfig_lang = $mosTemp->getBackwardLang();

After that code works fine in both PHP4 and PHP5, so it's advisable for the author to implement this changes in the original package.

2) multilingual approach is hard-coded in the source file mospasswort.php. Instead of that, it's better to allow the user enter desired language-specific words in properties of the plugin at Joomla administrator panel. By doing this, it's possible to use JoomFish! or other extensions to display multilingual web-sites.

Once again, it's a great plugin!

1) removed completely, since I'm using language files now
2) --> no need to add translation in Backend
