Bill Reiss discusses issues surrounding straying from the standard font set, and gets some info from Tim Heuer in the process.
Hosting Silverlight Content in ASP.NET 3.5
If I missed which of the authors at .net curry posted this, I'm sorry, but this is a good article on how to build and host your SL content...
Rough Skin Updated for Silverlight Beta 2
Corrina Barber updated her 'rough' skin to SL2B2 for us all, and then went on to show how the Rough Skin for Silverlight Beta 2 Is Easy to Customize
Zooming With Constraints
I found this via Scott Barnes, and it's a blog started by one of the DeepZoom developers at Microsoft! At this point, I'm getting an error on the DZ on the post, but I'm sure that is either me, or it will change :)
Silverlight Offline Storage with LINQ.
Scott Barnes also had this post about Sriram Balaji who shows how to roll your own offline storage with SL and LINQ... interesting :)
Silverlight tip: shortcut simple properties
Tim Heuer has a nice trick that shortcuts a lot of typing with seting properties.
Compare on Kelley Blue Book with Silverlight and DeepZoom
Tim blogged about a Kelley Blue Book application that includes Silverlight and DeepZoom... very cool. Now I want one that I was telling Tim about where you hear the noise and it tells you what's wrong :)
Some Silverlight ecosystem updates
In this post from Tim, he aggregated a few topics: 3rd party controls from Telerik, SL Sidebar Gadget template, and DeepZoom mosaics Author: Tim Heuer

Hey -

Let me know if the zoom with constraints stuff still doesn't work for you, and I'll try to take a look!

Thanks for the note...

It is working now, and that's saying something considering all the hacking around that's been done on this machine in the last 2 days :)

Looks great... love the pictures ... and I said I thought it was my machine :)

-Dave
