Ignite Gallery
★★★
Pretty good but needs more features

Ignite Gallery
This is a good gallery because you can view the thumbs and main image inline, the page doesn't reload, so it is very smooth.
You can also add your own logo, which saves a lot of time. If you don't like your first logo.
It is also very fast to upload many photos on the backend, so you can easily have 100's of photos display fairly quickly.
Missing features i'd like to see:
-Zoom, magnifying glass
-Amazon bucket support
-Other image borders designs options
-Clear resize cache (be careful about this one or you'll have a server full of duplicate images.)
-Choose resize folder location, no buried in the images folder.
- Captions over images.
- include videos
- thumbs inline option
Easy Ping
★
No worth it

I tried this out on a few sites. I can't say if the ping improves seo or not.
I can say it slows down your site so much that it is not worth it. If you are new to joomla you will think it is joomla and perhaps never use joomla again!

Perhaps you can enable once and a while and press apply to all you articles and they can be pinged. But why bother?

Good but still buggy

I like this as it seems the best available but still lots of bugs:

Can remove or add scripts from things like {mos maps .. so you have to switch to html mode to edit scripts. Or else you scripts don't work.
Uploads: Stuck in the same folder all the time. Can only upload one file at time, should be a nice fold grab.
Fonts: warning don't think all these fonts will actually appear on your site the same way. I learned this the hard way. Fonts seem to have two varieties of each, arial 10 and arial 10 from a different part of the page are different sizes. You can reelect the same font and size and it will shrink!
Some codes don't appear in the editor such as blockquotes.
Spacing and formatting, often get stuck indented and can't get out unless you go to html mode and enter or
Spell checker, i got burned by this one many times. Because you have to run the checker and it turns of your inline spell check. Even after you run it shuts down and you have to restart it. So be careful you don't miss a lot of spell errors with this editor like i did.
Floating Particles

Great fun perfect to cheer up a site and for holidays.

Floating Particles
Does what it say you the effects are good quality and life like. I have the fire work set up over a photo of a beach and it looks like the fire works are live!
The only thing bad to say is that you can't control which pages have floating effects applied to. Every pages becomes overkill, so i can only see turning this on or off for certain events.
Thanks for a great effect!

Cool effect but could be better

This is a very nice effect for a site map.
Major problem is that you have to click on the little red arrows to go to the link. This is hard to figure out and defeats the purpose.
The next problem is that it show the raw url instead of seo friendly type of url, looks ugly.
Googlemaps Plugin
★★★★★
awesome component!

Googlemaps Plugin
Works great. If your having trouble this component it is probably due to some script problems with the j editor. You should check what that actual script says in the html pop up, that no other charters have been added there. Very cool, looking forward to what comes next from Mike.
