How not to hide your code in SIlverlight 3

Alex Golesh had a need for a VS-type properties window for Class information and has done a very nice job on producing one and providing all of us with the code :)
Silverlight Slide Show (using Pixel Shader effects)
Pencho Popadiyn at SilverlightShow has a great tutorial up on a slideshow using the Silverlight 3 Pixel Shader effects using the WPF pixel shaders from Codeplex... very cool app.

Silverlight Cream back on the grid

Sorry for the absence from the blog and no Silverlight Cream. I took a week away from everything.

The 'main' road to the area I like to camp looks like this (and it was in pretty good condition compared to years past).

The turn-off to head North to the lake looks like this (looking South).

and this (looking North).

From that road, you can see we were pretty well back in there, and notice no neighbors!

The payoff is the lake. From my favorite spot facing South about 7 AM,

and turning around facing North.

That spot is a good hard 50 minute hike from the camp (going down).

I'll resume the 'Cream later on today with submittals I've received while gone then catch up over the next days.
