Google Maps Advanced
Literally 5 minutes from finding this:

Downloaded, Installed, found Lat and Long (click on Google Map, click What's Here ? copy Lat and Long from there), added address - this points to your location.

Oh yes you need to go to google, login, and get an API key. Just Google it.

Brilliantly simple, Thank You !

Have to give it a 5* rating. Was easy to install and get working. Including the Module.

Only issue I had was the text box was tiny, like one character wide.

It was my fault for not reading the instructions !
Don't skip the bit about: "Copy and paste the CSS into your main Template.css file".
Layout was fine after that. :-)

Would like to see stronger Spam-checks, Captcha is not very secure these days. See Blue Flame Forms for Joomla for example of strong and clever anti-spam.

Thank you for a great product.

CSS Gallery
Love this product.
People are time-poor and this delivers the most efficient way to display your images - fast. Simply mouse-over to change image.

We are using it for portfolio images.

Excellent illustrated instructions too - if only all plug-ins had that.

Big thank you to these guys.

All Weblinks
My client had lots of link categories but wanted them ALL displayed at once. This worked nicely.

CSS was easy to change to get the colours and the width of the columns right.

Possibly could have easier step-by-step instructions. But if you know Joomla 1.5, you'll work it out.

Thank you for this great plug-in.

DC Slide Menu
Our customer wanted the menu to expand on mouseover and this has solved the problem.

CSS files have comments within - very helpful.

Note: It took me a while to figure-out that I had to be registered and logged-in to the DC site to be able to see the 'Download' button !

Many thanks for a neat little module.

Blue Flame Forms For Joomla 2.5
Hard to fault this, even at UKPound 30 (Australian $65....ouch!) it's well worth it.

Easy to install and get going, couldn't be simpler to do your first form.

But beyond that there's so much depth, ability to customise emails, multiple (non-captcha) spambot checks, simple to add Submit Actions...etc

There's options to edit the CSS/HTML/Javascript, go as deep as you like.

Only thing on my wish list would be a wysiwyg layout editor, like the old Facile Forms, where you can nudge the fields into the pixel-perfect position.
However there IS a Custom Smarty Template which I havn't tried out yet so possibly that would help alter the layout.

Good support too, Phil responded quickly (allowing for time zone differences) and helpfully.

Took about 20 mins to download, install, scan the instructions and get in running with audio and a youtube vid.

If you're familiar with mambots and the {something}filename{/something} format, you'll be up and running in minutes. Otherwise just read the instructions carefully.

It's almost too simple ! I made the error of including the .mp3 extension, like this:

{mp3)hyperballad.mp3{/mp3}

when in fact I just needed this:

{mp3}hyperballad{/mp3}

Magnificent, thank you JoomlaWorks.

JUser
I installed JUser and JContentSubscription and also FireBoard forum, so it was a tricky user/content situation but JUser and JCS handled it.

The reason I'm writing this review because I cannot ever remember getting such quick and helpful support.
Excellent, well done joomlaequipment !

This is a handy little module if you want to insert flash animations in to your site.
