Twin Cities was the place to be last weekend, I spent the weekend at the Twin Cities Code Camp and they even let me present something on Silverlight 2. If you were present at the camp, I hope you enjoyed it, and as promised I have the source files available along with my dinky slide. Additionally I said I would provide some links and those will be below.

Demo Source Project: Image Viewer Demo.zip (810.79 kb)

Artist XAML, copy of Page.xaml only: Page_xaml.zip (7.06 kb)

Presentation Slides: Silverlight2 Introduction Demo.pptx (528.78 kb)

Additionally some had asked where I had gotten my snippet manager, it was actually the snippet manager used by the Silverlight team at Mix '08 and was built using WPF. I found it at Karen Corby's blog: http://scorbs.com/2008/03/18/snippetmanager.
