JSN ImageShow PRO
Delivers exactly as promised, support is great. Didn't take me long to purchase the unlimited version after installing this one and its worth every penny :)

MarvikShop
If you have a shop in OScommerce then this is the best solution for bringing it in to Joomla. I've been wasting money, time and researching methods & other carts to do this for 6 years now and this really is the best solution to date.

Yes, you need to be familiar with joomla & phpmyadmin. You should be already if you work with OScommerce and Joomla!

This component creates a new oscommerce shop within joomla, which is virtually identical to the admin of oscommerce, so you'll already be familiar with it. Once installed you import your data from your existing oscommerce store into the new joomla marvikshop. As with any shop with many products, its going to be work to tweak and reconfigure where necessary so don't expect to get away without putting any effort into it. Quite frankly, if you cannot manage to work with this then perhaps you shouldn't be trying to develop and manage your own web site, let alone an ecommerce site.

This component is short on documentation, but then I find most components this complicated are - because the developers put all their effort into the component itself and keeping up with improvement requests. The price paid for this is peanuts compared to the effort this developer has put into making it. Thank you Marvikshop!
J2XML
I installed this extension (beta version) without any problems and it works without any problems on Joomla 1.5.22 with loads of othr extensions installed on both the source & destination sites.

The beta version as of today's date is different from the stable version, it has the ability to send the content directly to the other site server!

I wrote to the developer after an issue installing and working with the stable version and had a reply back within the hour. Following his instructions to install the beta and read the documentation on his web site was all I needed to get going. Works a charm, what a fantastic tool for moving content to a new installation or onto a new server! This deserves awards and donations for it is going to save anyone who uses it a great, great deal of time.

this has some powerful features and highly configurable. I installed the free joomla version and spent 3 hours setting it up and customizing its css, awesome results but unfortunately to use it for our intended purpose we would need to pay 195.00 for the extra features of allowing public viewing but member only posting and limiting the files types, etc. The best customization features are in the paid version and since we are a non-profit we simply cannot afford it, but if we could we'd buy in a flash! installed easily, no problems on 1.5.14 with many components, mods and plugs in place already.

Blue Flame Forms For Joomla 2.5
Extremely easy to use and provides sophisticated and professional looking forms with loads of options for customizing. There isn't another forms extension that compares! Well worth paying the minimal price for such an excellent extension.

Modules Anywhere
I first installed had no problems whatsoever with using it, after a few days I found a minor bug that in no way affected its function but did prevent printing to pdf on article pages, in less than 24 hours the creator had answered my inquiry and fixed the bug - awesome support for a now flawless module.

Thanks for reporting the bug you found. As you said, it's fixed in the new version (0.1.3). If no-one comes with any more major bugs, Modules in Content will probably be stable soon.

Rquotes
Excellent little mod to add some extras to your site for fun, and perfect for testimonials! I agree with the review below - would be even better if ability to list quotes all on one page too!
Owner's reply

Thank you for your comments.
Version 1.5rc2 has been released. This version will display all (or any number) of quotes on one page as content.Please download new version

Worked perfectly after an install with no problems, created a perfect simple list from within the category, although I have to say I did not publish it to a module position because I needed it to create the list from a category only.

I installed a number of other category list creating extensions, to be used with another extension (Modules in Content) which would allow placing a module in the content of a page. None of the others worked when placed within the tags, but this one did! They both work beautifully together, allowing me to create a list from a category to place on the page content without having to create a lengthy submenu.
