In this Issue: Erik Mork, András Velvárt, Don Burnett, Dan Wahlin, Brad Abrams, Imran Shaik, and Andrew Myhre.

Shoutout:

Terence Tsang has the alpha of his Resource Directory running and I think it looks great: Silverlight Resource Directory - alpha


From:

Erik Mork's latest SparklingClient podcast is up and he's talking MEF with none other than the man you'd want to... Glenn Block!

András Velvárt continues in his "Discovering Silverlight 3" series with this one on GPU Acceleration... let him show you when and how to use it to your best advantage.

I know this post by Don Burnett isn't Silverlight, but it IS SketchFlow and WPF and Games and it's a great tutorial on top of all that

Dan Wahlin shows how to avoid errors in Blend at design time by checking to see if it is in a designer using the DesignerProperties class.

Brad Abrams is hacking and slashing this time, removing the MyApp.Web project and inserting an ASP.NET MVC project...

Imran Shaik works around the problem of ContentPresenter not having the foreground property you want to change. He gives two ways to accomplish it anyway.

Andrew Myhre had a problem recently opening a SL3 project that had worked fine on a different machine... turns out it was embedded fonts... check out why.

Stay in the 'Light!
