An impressive Silverlight Slideshow control

Published 01 January 08 03:31 PM | andarno 

I recently discovered a very impressive (and free) Silverlight slideshow control. I would recommend it over any Flash-based slideshow controls that I've seen so far (because this one's better--not just because I work here <g>)

Here's a sample:

Watch for a follow-up post on my JMPInline blog on the tricks I had to pull to get this Silverlight control working on Blogger while still pulling RSS photo feeds from PicasaWeb, despite the XSS-limitations imposed on Silverlight 1.0 controls.

Nice control! one little thing though: when I press Esc after switching to full screen, the view is restored to the original size but the buttons displayed are still the same as when in full screen.

Other than that, it looks pretty cool!

What's so great about it?  Seems basic to me.  Now this is impressive (all DHTML):

This actually does seem much easier to use and implement compared to flash! Now if only we can have silverlight be built into browsers other than having in as a plug-in addition!
