Simple Email Form
I found the basic form generated by this extension worked well, but the layout of the form sucked. I couldn't get the "name of css class" to work at all. I emailed the developer and never heard back. There's not a word on their website about how you might do even the most basic styling of your form. I simply wanted to put some space between the rows in my form. The demo version shows some, but my "out of the box" form didn't so I can't really use the extension. So, unless you know PHP really well, your "out of the box" form is going to look very unprofessional. I suggest looking at a few others before you bother with this one.

Normally I respond to comments in a timely manner, so very sorry to have let this one slip by! You can pretty easily stylize the form by filling in the "CSS Class" field in the module configuration. When then happens is that the form will be rendered in this format: label ... more rows ...

Accordingly, you can create a style along these lines:
.your_class {
// basic styling info
}
.your_class th {
// styles for labels
}
.your_class input {
// styles for input fields
}

Unfortunately, the "support" forum has absolutely nothing in it to help resolve this issue (or any other issue for that matter!). Basically, with many Joomla 1.5 templates, there is very little width in your left and right module positions. This module overflows into your main article area making it unusable in two of the most relevant module positions.

EZ Paypal Gift Certificate
While the product may be good, be aware that any problems you have may go unanswered. This developer does not appear to offer any support. There is almost no information available on the developer's forum and the email address for support seems bounces because it is set to "mail@email.com".

The support email is hybing@gmail.com, I don't know where you get the mail@email.com from.

Plug-in is great but doesn't work with the YouTube plug-in called "Qtube" when it is on the same site. I used the CustomContent plug-in so that I could display my easypaypal plug-in as a module. So I added the plug-in to a new article and then displayed the customcontent module in the right panel of a page. Simple! Works fine except when I enable the QTube plug-in on another page. When Qtube is enabled, the easypaypal button appears and works but above it the page displays an error message related to my Qtube plug-in. There seems to be a conflict between the two plug-ins. The error message says:
Warning: Missing argument 3 for plgContentQTube::onPrepareContent() in /home/aumakua/www/www/plugins/content/qtube.php on line 23

Easy Paypal
This plug-in comes without any user documentation for the free download. Once installed, when you're in Joomla and you go to the plug-in parameters, there is almost no support there either; only very cryptic comments about what each parameter field means. There is a easy paypal forum, but it seems to be used by the plug-in developer and no-one else. It contains only a few posts about random features and not the typical problems/solutions you expect from a forum. I suggest you look elsewhere if you are a joomla beginner or even intermediate user.
