moo.rd – A Lightweight MooTools Extension
moo.rd features a great collection of visual plugins to give your sites a bit more pop. My favorite extensions and plugins include Make.Table, Fx.Cycle, and Tutorial. moo.rd also features a MooTools-style plugin download tool so that you can grab only the modules you need at the compression rate that you want.
MochaUI

PhatPhusion also offers an impressive collection of visual widgets, including lightbox, sortable tables, rounded corners , and slideshow plugins. PhatPhusion’s plugins are still only compatible with MooTools 1.1, but their functionality is worth your time to update to 1.2.
