I will explain how I used the Expression tools to design the graphics and various .NET techniques to enable user control and game animation.

&lt;p&gt;What would be really neat is if you used Ink to draw the X and O. &amp;nbsp;I think I have a new idea ...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have been bugging my head about how to implement ball collision but it seems your solution is a good one.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I understand the method: 'doCollide(param)' but would love to know why you did what you did in that method i.e. can u please exlain the formula.&lt;/p&gt;
