I wonder how this compares to SPGM?

Thanks

Thanks for the note on DROP_SHADOW windows style when running on Win2000. The minimum requires was decided to be XP but that's not mentioned or enforced. It would be nice to make it work on previous version of Windows also. We rebuilt the sample and a new version should be posted on the FotoVision site that checks for XP before using the DROP_SHADOW style. Thanks again,

There's a bug in the desktop viewer when run under Windows 2000.

The code attempts to use the window property DROP SHADOW, which doesn't exist for 2000.

Here's the code fix:

PropertiesForm.vb
LINE 340
' use the XP drop shadow
Protected Overrides ReadOnly Property CreateParams() As CreateParams
<SecurityPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Flags:=SecurityPermissionFlag.UnmanagedCode)> Get
Dim cp As CreateParams = MyBase.CreateParams

' Check OS Before using XP drop shadow
Dim OSVer As Version = System.Environment.OSVersion.Version()
Select Case OSVer.Major
Case Is <= 5
Case 5
If OSVer.Minor > 0 Then
cp.ClassStyle = cp.ClassStyle Or Win32.CS_DROPSHADOW
End If
Case Is > 5
cp.ClassStyle = cp.ClassStyle Or Win32.CS_DROPSHADOW
Case Else
End Select
Return cp

End Get
End Property

I've been meaning to get around to learning some of that graphics manipulation stuff. Looks like prodding around this thing might be a good start. Unless somebody out there can recommend something else ( send any suggestions through http://ghostdev.ca/contact.aspx )

Woohoo, its great, got it working in minutes and uploaded to my photo site. This is going to be so much easier to manage than MSN groups for my photos, I never got round to writing my version which was going to be similar, perhaps I will use this as a base, once I've converted it to c# ;-)

A new end-end .net smart client application, FotoVision, has been released to the web. [Tim Sheath] Also developed by Vertigo Software that developed the IssueVision and IBuySpy samples (and several other stuff like the ASP.NET starter kits) and I also learned today they were responsible for porting Quake II to .NET.
