So, picking up where we left off yesterday...  Not too long ago, I received a question regarding our licensing policies, specifically section 3-1 in which we state: "Telerik does not provide technical support for modified source code" Which, to the customer, seemed a bit odd considering we do offer such useful tidbits in our documentation like how to inherit a RadGrid column, albeit with a disclaimer at the bottom reminding people about our support stance on modified source, which this would then fall into.

I began here back in September of 2008 and have been on a fast-track to learning everything about Telerik. But what does a Developer Support Consultant do, besides sound flashy?

As a developer in my spare time, I've used Telerik controls (albeit only as a...

lifting (noun) Face-lifting or face-lift is the plastic surgery for tightening facial tissues and improving the facial appearance. Q1 2009 Beta.

For a taste of things to come, here is a link to our new Web Mail demo, and its source. You can also check the screenshots below.   Two complete skins were rolled out for the beta – namely a brand new (and color neutral) Default skin, as well as Vista. Another...
