After downloading about a dozen extensions and deleting them again in frustration because they either didn't work or didn't perform as promised I came across this little gem. All I wanted was something that would post the odd tweet of mine on my website in a consistent and not "in-your-face" manner" without having to adjust an array of menus in the back-end to get it working. This is as simple as it gets but very pretty AND effective. Thank you!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Simple module options. And best of all it's free! Thanks to the developers for making this available. Only thing I would suggest for future versions might be to have an option for which Twitter birdie to use, but even without that option this module is PERFECTO :)
The extension is simplified and just what I needed. No need for any complex {mod} stuff. Thank you
After exploring a number of Twitter modules, I tried this one and was most happy with it. It installed flawlessly, works very well with my template and was flexible enough to let me tweak the styling with CSS. It didn't even need much of that because it's so goodlooking out of the box (I just need to fix some padding having more to do with my site template than with this mod).
I haven't tried getting support for it (haven't needed it), so if that does happen, I hope I have a better experience than some of the others reported here...

the module itself works ok and the design is great but the reason why I'm rating is very poor is because of support. I am having a problem with this module and 1 month has passed since I wrote in their forum and I have received no answer.Developers just don't care.I wonder who is purchasing their products!
This mod works perfectly! And it looks great which is refreshing for a free mod. Usually free mods look a bit blocky and can ruin the look of a site, this mod doesn't do that.
The scrolling movement is nice. The colours are nice.
Pretty much perfect! Thank you!

Works perfectly, took five minutes to install and that's including changing the cute bird logo over to something a little less 'cute'..(sorry that wasn't quite right for my site!) The ability to get rid of the user tag on the top is just what I needed, everyone looking at my site knows me already anyway.. anyway.. slick, simple and stunning! Thank you!
I spent most of the day yesterday installing and then un-installing duff twitter extensions and had almost given up, but then found yours! I was very pleased as it installed well, works perfectly and looks great and best of all, costs nothing. Thanks for your time, it's done the job perfectly.
The component is great but I had to uninstall it. It was working at first and all was well, but a few days later my whole site crashed due to an error in helper.php(part of the twitter module). It wasn't a permanent error, after a few refreshes it comes back, but I couldn't take the risk of my site being down.
Also another problem, which doesn't really matter that much is that the arrows are not working, it only shows however many twitter messages I've selected and it only has page 1.
Other than this the module is great, does exactly what it says and it's super easy to install.

I also have the crashing problem in helper.php, it brakes the entire site and I had to desactivate the module. I´m running Joomla 1.5.22 and JF_Twitter 2.3. It´s a pity because it´s a great module :\
Would really have liked to see anything, but the only thing I get is this error message :"Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in /home/users/itxxx/itxxx.nl/modules/mod_jf_twitter/helper.php on line 38".
Have Joomla 1.5.22 (Dutch), Joomfish 2.0.4, JF Twitter 2.3

This extension is great, but I'm afraid the crashing problem has not been fixed. I am running Joomla 1.5.15 and JF_Twitter 2.3.
An error message identifying this module shows up when my site crashes.
