In this Issue: Jesse Liberty, Scott Marlowe, Adam Kinney, Andrew Marshall, and Brad Abrams.

Shoutouts:

Attribution error: Alan Mendelevich wrote me this morning to thank me for posting a link to his post Changing Brush Brightness in WPF/Silverlight. Unfortunately I had attributed it to someone else :( Go check this out its some pretty cool code!

If you're into 3D, you'll want to check out this post by Pavan Podila: Source code of Simple 3D Engine, now part of FluidKit.

From SilverlightCream.com:
OMG, where do I start?
In this great post by Jesse Liberty, he tackles the WTF do I poke this Silverlight stuff to get the learning going question. Jesse lists lots of options and I like them all. All you have to do is let your guard down for a few minutes and you're back in the OMG state again it seems :)
A Silverlight TagCloud, Part 2: The TagCloud
Scott Marlowe has Part 2 of his Silverlight TagCloud series up. This part is the Silverlight Control. Code-heavy and lots of learning in there!
Using ChangePropertyAction to fade in loaded Images
Adam Kinney fades in an image as the imageOpened event triggers. He shows how simple it really is with Blend... Good one, Adam!
Using Merged ResourceDictionaries in Silverlight Themes
This is a cool post... Andrew Marshall found a problem, wrote a test to produce the problem, wrote code to get the test to pass, and then submitted the code to the toolkit team... oh, and to us :)
Business Apps Example for Silverlight 3 RTM and .NET RIA Services July Update: Part 14: Visual Basic (VB) and WPF Support
Brad Abrams revisits Part 2 with VB this time, and then near the end throws in some ADO.NET Data Services just because.

Stay in the 'Light!
