    WPF in action - part 1: Designer's look on WPF

    I am yet to grasp the marketing behind Microsoft naming conventions - usually a beta program would jump start with a great name, the official launch would kill it in a dull title, and things would finally settle down with an abbreviation that is actually pronounceable. Naming conventions aside, the upcoming Windows Presentation Framework (WPF), formerly known as Avalon, holds promise to become the next buzzword of the industry - even if someone adds to it another sentence before the official roll-out with Windows Vista in early 2007.From a designer's point of view, the next-generation interface for Windows is all...

    IE Memory Leak Best Practices with AJAX in Mind

    Thinking how to make your life and our ROI targets easier, we decided it’s a good idea to provide for download the Photoshop sources of our components’ skins.

    Glassy buttons, interrupted?

    Has the time come to challenge the top place of glassy look in today’s web notion for haute couture? What could possibly act cooler than a glassy button on your web site? Admit it, even if you never had it, at one point or another you secretly craved for one. One of those fat, professional looking glassy buttons that scream out loud style & grace and are said to sky-rocket click through rates. Everyone’s got it - for the last couple of years, web interface has been all about this glassy feel – ironically enough, with the fall of the...
