"The RealName module allows the administrator to choose fields from the user profile that will be used to add a "real name" element (method) to a user object. Hook_user is used to automatically add this to any user object that is loaded. It will also optionally set all nodes and comments to show this name."

ImageField provides an image upload field for CCK. ImageField is a CCK-based alternative to the legacy Image project. It boasts features such as multiple images per node, resolution restrictions, default images, and extensive Views support. ImageField does not provide a built-in thumbnail solution, but complements the incredibly powerful thumbnail generation module ImageCache.

This module allows you to specify content type(s) as being a block. This allows the content managers of the site to edit the block text and title without having to access the block administration page. Users only need edit access to that node in order to edit it. It is very handy to create a simple block content type and enable this content type for blocks and use these in place of the normal 'add block' functionality. Now supports translatable content In the 6.x-dev version, if Content Translation is enabled, then only a single node block per translation set is exposed and the node from the translation set with the appropriate language is loaded into the block.

This is a brilliant idea, it's been around a bit, and people have commented on the blog entry that it *should* be part of devel.module. However, I don't think I've seen this functionality in devel.module yet. Have you?

Handy bit of text to copy and paste into a webform select component. Especially if you want a list of countries.

Looks to be a pretty fair and balanced comparison. Having said that, I've never even downloaded Übercart. The comparison seems to be fair as she says she's used both, and isn't pushing one harder than the other. Looks like the choice needs to be made on a site-by-site basis

Excellent info re: using Flash to read content managed by Drupal

List of a whole bunch of slideshow/sliding/banner style modules.

When using alternative search methods (Lucene API, Apache Solr), you're probably no longer using Drupal's default search, but it will continue to index content on your site. Use this method to disable the core search module from indexing content, and leave it to the big boys.

Display Suite allows you to take full control over how your content is displayed using a drag and drop interface. Arrange your nodes, views, comments, user data etc. the way you want without having to work your way through dozens of template files. A predefined list of layouts (D7 only) is available for even more drag and drop fun! By defining custom view modes (build modes in D6), you can define how one piece of content should be displayed in different places such as teaser lists, search results, the full node, views etc.
