It's a great wonder for me my article titled Common UI Practices in ASP.NET Applications at codeproject has reached 30,418 hits so far! This article was published in March 2006, and was honored to be a recommended article by the official web site of ASP.NET. In this article, I discussed few tips and guidelines regarding the UI issues while developing an ASP.NET based web application, along with some useful resource links. It's great pleasure for me, around 30k+ developers read my article to find some outline to make their web applications better. I have also got some suggestions from the readers as well as, which helped me to make the article better (and thus improve my UI skills as well as).
My user samples, provided at gotdotnet have been downloaded 10,118 times, so far. There are 8 user samples, which include few of my coding samples, which I thought might be a bit useful for my community friends.
When I started my development life, .NET was very new at that time. None of my friends around me started to study on it! Some of them was wondered to hear this new name! So I had to start alone! By that time besides few hard copies, I got lots of resources in online, provided by the community developers, which helped me to quickly learn this new technology. As a developer, I am really grateful to my community friends, and wanted to do something in return for them. Might be, so far, I couldn't be able to do something great and awesome for my community friends, but I have a deep wish to do that!
