I originally posted this under the Customer Testimonials v3 mod, but realized there are so many big changes that this should probably be a separate contribution.

*** NOTE: Please PM me or post in this thread and PM me to let me know you have a question. I am not an OSC expert, but I'll do my best to help you out, time permitting. ***
Version 1.0 contains the following features:
* Built on Customer Testimonials v3 code base (specfically rev 5.0/5.1)
* Added reCaptcha functions (from OSC reCaptcha 1.4.4 by olsonsp4c)
* Customer's emails protected from harvesting by spam bots
* Captcha image verification on testimonial submittals
* Moved admin functions to dedicated Configuration menu
* Emails to admin now come from admin mail address. Prevents spam collection and need for verification of email address.
* ReCaptcha admin functions (set public / private keys) have a separate admin area. Why? ReCaptcha code can be used elsewhere on your website. Its use is not limited to Customer Testimonials.
* CT InfoBox now only appears on non-SSL pages. This prevents a problem where the user could receive a SSL warning from their Web browser that not all of the elements on the page were secure. It also removes the CT box from parts of your store where it is not needed, such as the Checkout process and Account pages.
* New admin functions:
o Enable/Disable Customer Testimonials module ("kill switch")
o Enable/Disable customer image uploads as part of testimonials
o Turn on/off users ability to email authors
o Enable/Disable reCaptcha to protect testimonial author email address from harvesting
o Limit Testimonial viewing to registered users
o Limit Testimonial writing to registered users
o Enable/Disable reCaptcha function on testimonial forms
o Option for static or new scrolling testimonials feature
o Various settings to control scrolling features
o Switch on/off reCaptcha form verification (anti-spam bot)
* Localized testimonials. Testimonials now appear in users language. Only see what matches your language. What good are testimonials if your customer cant read them?
* Added new language support:
o French
o German
o Portuguese
