In this issue: Bill Reiss(3), Mark Monster(2), and Nigel Sampson.


From SilverlightCream.com:
Embedding a F# class library in a Silverlight 2 Application
Bill Reiss has three new posts up this first one is on F#, the other two are on game development. The F# one is interesting because he produced a template for us that produces a C# SL app and an F# class library... good stuff!
A simple Silverlight game particle system
Bill also has added a particle system inherited fro CenteredSprite that gives you things like Start/End Opacity, Start/End Scale, and Life Span. Lotsa code on there to peruse :)
An improved Silverlight Sprite class
Bill finished this go-around with an improved Sprite class that is a more general-purpose class than a specific game one.
Combining Silverlight and Google Chart API
Mark Monster took off on the Google Chart API and Silverlight. He makes it look pretty easy, and the result is very nice!
Getting the NTLM Username into your Silverlight application
If you want to know the username of the person logged into your Silverlight site, Mark has a post to help you out.
