Silverlight Cream for November 05, 2008 -- #420

In this issue: Rich Griffin, Nikolay Raychev, David Anson, Manish Dalal, and Terence Tsang.

I apologize for not posting this on Monday, but Scott Barnes is asking for everyone's assistance on a poll: Calling all Silverlight/WPF Developers & Designers.

Then today Tim Heuer posted this: Hey Startups – get some BizSpark ... wow... if you're a startup, check that out!


From SilverlightCream.com:
Silverlight themes 101 - Resource Dictionary Visual Studio Item Template
Rich Griffin posted an item template for VS Resource Dictionaries... he has some info about it's use also... another time-saver from someone in the trenches :)
Silverlight Toolkit Overview
Nikolay Raychev posted a nice overview of the Silverlight Toolkit ... one more won't hurt to drive the point home about all the goodness :)
A simple step continues to shrink the download size of Silverlight 2 applications
David Anson discusses re-compressing the XAP and has links out to a few blogs talking about it... I think I'm only missing one :)
ConfigSwitcher: ServiceReferences.ClientConfig Switcher Utility
Manish Dalal Acknowledges that we're all dorking with out configurations and provides us a tool to help switch between configurations -- pretty cool actually, one of those things to help you avoid pulling out what hair you have left!
Flash vs Silverlight: JavaScript Sample 2
Terence Tsang's latest demo has a ball bouncing between Silverlight and Flash... I remember some 1.0 demos something like this... but no matter what, it's seriously interesting to synch it up :)

Stay in the 'Light!
