From:

Christmas in Silverlight

Jim Lynn sent me this admittedly no-code Christmas card. Cool Deep Zoom demo though... I like it:)

Silverlight Girl Continues with her Expression Blend Shadow effects, enhancing and refining her efforts from last time... cool tutorial, thanks!

Microsoft eCard

Ok, I admit I don't know what the 'Natal' part is, but this Silverlight eCard from Microsoft Natal is very cool.

Run time is design time for AGT [6]

In this episode of Damon Payne's excursion, he begins working on the Designer surface interactions.

Lutz Gerhard has a very interesting take on Deep Zoom. My XP machine locked up on it, and the Vista laptop with dual-core and over 2G of RAM fared just a bit better. I only mention this to give you fair warning... cool is cool, but you need some cajones to run this one!

Tamir Khason responds to queries about writing Silverlight without XAML... in hopes of beating the 10K challenge:)

Understanding: Dependency Properties in Silverlight

Imran Shaik has posted a very complete tutorial on Dependency properties in Silverlight. He even has code in VB AND C#!

Quick Blend Tutorial for Developers

Ning Zhang has a great introductory Blend Tutorial up on his site. Even if you're working with Blend, check this out to make sure you're not missing something important!

Silverlight Feature Requests

Joe Stegman has aggregated a set of Silverlight Feature requests from various sources. Joe suggests continuing to make requests and he says he will update the post regularly.

Stay in the 'Light!
