Facebook-Twitter-Google+1
I tried every tweet/social button plugin there is in the directory and this is the only one that has everywhing I needed and looks good as well. After weeding through so many disfunctional plugins and signing up to site after site just be disappointed this plugin worked for what I needed, simple to install, easy to configure and most importantly looks good, don't waste your time signing up on sites and digging around just use this one!

JCK Editor
Ok I was looking for an editor with spell check and found this one, I got more than I bargained for, for free. Loaded with available free plugins, nice framework and excellent choices. Just installed it, simple clean and easy to do. Didn't change anything except the template choice and works great right out of the box. I needed something for my personal blog. This is it. I intend to use it on a group site I'm building for a gamer communinity. Thank you for all the work you've done and are doing to create an excellent extension. If the Free one is this good, I'm impressed! Would have given you 5 but I'm still just trying it out. My guess is it's well worth 5.

OT Social Share
I need a plugin that gives more options, granted this is free but there are social sharing plugins for v1.5 that give you more options and they are free. First it would be nice to have a choice to show some text and not just the title, also address shortening is a feature that most people are needing these days as Joomla often has long addresses to the articles. All in all this does what it says it will, but, I need something different, Thanks

Easy Twitter Status
Well I see a couple of people have mentioned crashes but I absolutely see no problem. I was looking for a Twitter feed mod that would work with my template none were able to deal with the semitransparent css in the modules. Yours did for that I give you excellent. I tried many and none worked all did what they said except working with my css. Your mod is clean and easy to use works very well as far as I can see. No complaints here, and much appreciation for writing a mod that can handle the pressure of high ended templates!

First I would have given you an excellent rating but The use of the extension seemed a bit unclear at first untill I received an email from it informing me of incorrect setup. For that I verbaly give you an excellent in the title but not in the rating. Now, I have had a serious problem with bots for some time attempting to register on my site. All the extensions I have used still make it so I have to deal with them personally, This is the first extension where they are stopped at the back door and I have to do nothing but be notified! Thank you for an excellent extension I can't believe it's free. You have done something no other extension has been able to do and for this I appllaud you! I highly recommend this extension to everyone. Also integrates well with CB!!

Twitter FollowMe
I once passed by this mod because it didn't have the look I wanted for one of my sites. I recently created a simple and clean site with white borders and needed a follow us mod. I had forgotten about this one and when I say it I tried it. Excellent! I'm glad I did, works right out of the box, easy to configure, looks great on my white border. If all you want is a way for people to follow your twitter and don't need all the feed and fan stuff, this mod is excellent!! Good job!

Live Game Server List
First I want to thank Richard for the work he has done to create this tool. Second I want to say that most people don't realize what it takes to query a server much less invoke one so the work in this component is exceptional. Yes it has some problems here and there but they are mostly due to issues that are related to the actual servers and not the component. This extension is for people who have a working knowledge of php and detailed site creation. Not for the Noob but if you feel adventurous it's not too hard to use, the forums at Richards site are full of info. Once it's up and running it ROCKS!!!! Considering no one else has attempted to create an extension like it, is a testament to how much work goes in to this kind of thing. The back end use is very simple and basic, the installation is easy, the tweeks are basic to difficult depending on how much detail you are looking for. By far this is one of the finest components I've worked with in Joomla since I can remember. I highly recommend it for a gamer clan site or personal gamer site. Thanks again Richard!

PGT RssScroller
After mucking about for a RSS Scroller and dumping all of them. I found this. It does exactly what I wanted and looks great!! Multiple feeds, multiple choices and works as soon as you install and configure! Great job on this extension, if I could give you ten stars I would!!

Super RSS Scroll
I have been using some scrollers (not mentioned) and they seem to just stop working. This one is not bad but not great. I find the jerky movement of the scroller a bit distracting, perhaps you could smooth the motion out or write a speed control in to the script, also the ability to add more than one rss feed would be nice, otherwise a very nice extension. Thanks!

Update Manager for Joomla!
After all the updating and upgrading I have done since 1.0 I can't believe I have never seen this extension before. I am extatic that I came accross it. This extension is going in to all my sites using Joomla asap!! Thank the developers for making this free! Installed it and it works like a charm, I noticed a couple of hickups but I think the database was just adjusting itself, things have been fine since nothing to complain about I'm just glad that updating has become so easy!!! Thanksyou!!
FeedGator
After I was able to get my IP to open my incoming connections I reinstalled FeedGator, I knew from the first attempt this would be a great extension. I was not dis-satisfied. Upon install which only took a moment and going in to Global Settings the component was working with no hitches, a little fine tuning and it is a thing of beauty. The Developers deserve a great deal of thanks for allowing this extension to be free!! I am most glad to have it on my site!! I have used many extensions over the years and I have to say this one is one of the most user friendly extensions I've seen!

MP3 Browser
I've used several media plugins for my sites but yours is outstanding!! Easy to use easy to install and easy to modify. Couldn't get more user friendly, great work. Here is your plugin at work on our site. It took all of 3 minutes to place and customize!! Thanks. I hope you have a banner I can place on our site, I'll be checking for one!

This is an excellent tool. I searched everywhere to install an RSS feed that would scroll by a third party site. Nothing would work including the native mods.(That'a another issue for another place) This toll made it completely possible and the posibilities are limitless!! Thanks so much!!
