Basically my current demo / development version is just a UserControl with 5 visual states that just make it change a smiley face to an angry face ...

I'm looking for an image editor that I can embed easily into an ASP.NET website. I need to be able to draw rectangles, lines and add some text.

Is it possible to construct a file:// link to an isolated storage file? Is there a uri scheme that is def...

At a recent discussion on Silverlight the advantage of speed was brought up. The argument for Silverlight was that it performed better in the browser than Javascript because it is compiled (and managed) code. It was then stated that this advantage only applies to IE because IE interprets Javascript which is inefficient when compared to...

Hi there, When I pass a list of objects out of my silverlight app using WCF everything works fine until the List grows too big. It seems that when I exceed 80 items I get the error: The remote server returned an unexpected response: (404) Not Found I'm presuming that it's because the List has grown too big as when the List had 70 items...
