Excellent gallery - clean design, wonderful implementation



Posted on 20 June 2010
This is a terrific image gallery extension. It does exactly what you would expect and has good documentation and a good user support forum as well. Very highly recommended.

Wonderful Photo Gallery extension

This is a beautifully presented photo gallery with easy to add captions, adjustable format sizing, clear and simple "category" organization, and flexible movement of image order within the gallery. The more I learn the ins and outs, the more applications I have for it. I also have to mention the outstanding and prompt help from Matt and Jeremy in the support forum! Thanks for a great product!

Awesome Gallery & Features & Support

I was so very impressed by the frontend and backend design and the final production. This is well worth the small fee. I had some questions and the support was instantaneous, clear, and extremely helpful and friendly. Buy this and you will not be disappointed, especially, if you want your users to be able to load up images as an option. Very nice interface. Thanks!

Great gallery great support

I got this gallery with the view to customise it to save images to from a Flash application. The support I got from the guys at Ignite Gallery was second to none. This is a great easy to use gallery which looks attractive, has nothing in the way of branding and allows you to have multiple galleries of different designs easily controlled by one simple interface. The ability to place the galleries into article and module positions as well as the default component position is awesome.

Brilliant!

Superb Gallery and Superb Support.

I asked questions in the forums, had instant answers and even had the developer log into my site to fix up a little bug, on the fly.

New Beta VERY strong.. great support!

Love the new beta.. everyhing we need and Matt's support is very good!

Fantastic extension, even better support

This is one of the best, most versatile, and easiest to implement extensions I've used. It can do so much for you plus it just plain looks great.



What makes it even better is the fantastic support Matt and his team provide. If all extensions provided this kind of support, I wouldn't mind paying for a commercial license every time. Worth every penny.



Keep up the great work!

Excellent product and developer!

This is extremely well written programming. The whole process is thought out very intuitively. Each step was logical which made it easier for me being a first time Joomla user. Some of the other extensions out there are very confusing.



The documentation is excellent as well. Very detailed, logical and with graphics too. The demo was one of best I've seen.



The support with a subscription is the bees knees. Matt goes above and beyond what I consider should be covered when you buy a product. He even helped me customize some parts to meet my specific needs. Not to mention the response time. Being on the other side of the planet from him, it was very timely.



If you want a very elegant and fully featured gallery, the $40 for this is a absolute give away.



Great work Matt,

Thanks for being a programmer, not everybody finds their calling.

Great gallery for your site

I have used many gallery for joomla sites in the past. Ignite Gallery is just everything that has been missing in the others I have used. It's almost to simple to use and worth every dollar.

This Component/module/plug-in Is Truly Superb



Posted on 17 March 2010
This is by far the best photo gallery component available for Joomla as far as I'm concerned. I have used all the free galleries available and they all have their own merits. obviously if you're on a budget than anything free is good, especially if it works. However, this gallery component is just fantastic. I love the ease of uploading photos, you can do 100 photos in less than a couple of minutes. using the plug-in all module enables you to put individual galleries into articles. Absolutely brilliant. And this component doesn't come with annoying back links that you can't get rid of.
