If I missed which of the authors at.net curry posted this, I'm sorry, but this is a good article on how to build and host your SL content...

Rough Skin Updated for Silverlight Beta 2

Corrina Barber updated her 'rough' skin to SL2B2 for us all, and then went on to show how the Rough Skin for Silverlight Beta 2 Is Easy to Customize

Zooming With Constraints

I found this via Scott Barnes, and it's a blog started by one of the DeepZoom developers at Microsoft! At this point, I'm getting an error on the DZ on the post, but I'm sure that is either me, or it will change:)

Silverlight Offline Storage with LINQ.

Scott Barnes also had this post about Sriram Balaji who shows how to roll your own offline storage with SL and LINQ... interesting:)

Tim Heuer has a nice trick that shortcuts a lot of typing with seting properties.

Tim blogged about a Kelley Blue Book application that includes Silverlight and DeepZoom... very cool. Now I want one that I was telling Tim about where you hear the noise and it tells you what's wrong:)

In this post from Tim, he aggregated a few topics: 3rd party controls from Telerik, SL Sidebar Gadget template, and DeepZoom mosaics Author: Tim Heuer

Stay in the 'Light!
