I would like to use Kevin idea for combining both concepts but when I copy what he did i get an error of invalid arguments.

Could you please post all the changes needed?

Thanks

good job,thanks david

i have combined the placeimge and lowprofileimageloader in placeimage used the following code:

in placeimage:

if (null != _frontImage)

{

if (!System.ComponentModel.DesignerProperties.GetIsInDesignMode(this))

{

Delay.LowProfileImageLoader.SetUriSource(this, ((BitmapImage)this.Source).UriSource);

}

it work well now,thanks

Tom Zhou,

I think you'd need to merge the code a bit to get that to work because LowProfileImageLoader only works with Image instances. But the concepts seem to apply pretty directly to PlaceImage as well, so I'd expect it to be pretty straightforward to make the changes to try this out!

Hi David Anson,

I want to use your PlaceImage control and PhonePerformance control in one class. Can I do it?

Luan Nguyen,

I've created NuGet packages for assemblies I released in the past few months (search for "Delay" on http://nuget.org/), but for something like PlaceImage where I expect most folks will just reference the source code file directly, I haven't created a package just because it didn't seem most folks would consider it useful. Do you recommend otherwise?

I hope you will create a NuGet package for this?
