JCrawler
There are some extensions which EVERY project should have. For me these include JCE, Abivia autocopy, PlaceHere and now JCrawler. Talk about making life easy. This is particularly useful when you have a HUGE site with a stack of data. Life is SO much simpler with this extension.

Simply a "Must Have" extension.

Universal AJAX Live Search
The demo site will show you what this tool is capable of. It is simple, effective and lightweight. Most importantly, it is truly beautiful straight out of the box and styling is made easy enough for beginners. These people are very talented, but have remembered that other people are just beginners and they have created a tool that addresses this.

Further to all this they are very attentive. Upon installation I noticed it was not pulling in the images (part of my original attraction) from another component. I e-mailed support and, within 1 business day, they have contacted me, tried to do the work for me (not possible, site in dev on localhost), discussed the problem and given me the solution which, it must be noted, lies in the 3rd party component.

Brilliant. My only regret is that I wish I had been this able when I was that young ;)

Custom CSS
I had a simple need for an overflow call on a couple of pages on one of my sites. The design is rigid and works for all the other pages, but some areas the site needs to have more information than the rigid design can hold. Once I had created my custom CSS I just used the {loadposition ...} call in my article and everything works beautifully. So, thank you again.
Page Title Module for Joomla!
I am always hesitant when I am downloading modules from their description only, but this reads right AND it works beautifully. BIG thank you. Legend.

EventList
I found this tool a long time ago, but really didn't have the opportunity to use it properly until I was asked by my Dad to do his choir's website. The result is excellent. Add eventdirections and nextevent and this thing just does it all. My Dad understood it instantly and just said "Wow!".

JCE
I NEVER use Joomla! without installing this. A GREAT editor. This makes Joomla! great. Thanks.

Core Design Login Module
I can see that a number of people have come on here complaining about installation issue and loading times. I have experienced nothing of the sort with this module. Truthfully all extensions require a little work, what do people expect. This is astounding and I was pleasantly surprised to find this as a "non-commercial" module. Excellent work guys, I have your other modules in mind for the future.
Exposé bridge
I installed the latest 4.6.3c alpha and got it up and running in a few minutes. I only encountered 1 error and that appears to be a glitch with Firefox 3.0 (and there are a few FF glitches in 3.0 anyway!).
Once I established that I was better off working with the desktop app to set up my galleries work has been great and I just dump the update before I go to bed.
Excellent. Would love to see integration for Virtuemart in a future release.

Thanks to the writer and the forum members. You guys are great.
