Rokin Gallery
this is exactly what I was looking for.

interfaces with google's picassa web galleries withe se. The back end interface is great, and it is well worth your while to get the cool wall working. It runs surpisingly fast.

the extensions are usefull, unfortunately not too many of them work in conjunction with the cool wall flash feature. i am really impressed with this extension.

NinjaXplorer
This extension is very very good. I tried a bunch of file managers before settling on this one. It should be in the editors picks.

Xmap
it is truely excellent, and well supported by teh comunity. i keep finding usefull extensions for xmap to suit my choice of components.

Its useage is relatively simple, but beneath teh surface tehir is alot of usefull depth.

ccBoard
I have spent the last week installing and testing most of teh forums listed here. it works very well . i am using joomla 1.5.12

ccBoard wins hands down.
- install worked well
- there is an extension for Xmap available
- there is a search plugin available
- there are a couple of neat module available which will display popular , or recent posts.
- Its apearance is nice and clean, and the colours are just muteable enough to be used on most websites.
- the controls are simple in the back end.
- it does not try to do everything. it does a forum well.
- it integrates natively with joomla, and is kicking goals.

The problems I had with other forums:
- error messages
- faulty installs
- confusing interfaces
- lack of extensions
- too many options
- ugly aperance
- lengthy problem fixing.

yvComment
This feature was the missing element of our club website. Sure we had a forum, and users were publishing articles.. but this was the missing link. The website sudenly became interactive. Many of the other comments managers are far too chunky with avatars and threading. the simplicty of the display is captavating.. it was exactly what i wanted. The easily integrated choice of Captcha's is also neat. Time will tell how robut it is, but it looks great, and is already in use by the users.

thanks for a great extension.

Attachments for Joomla!
I am very pleased with this extension. It is a feature that should come out of the box with joomla. Previous to this I was storing pdf's in teh image directory, and writing in the links by hand. this is a far superior option.
