ImageCardMessage imageCardMessagePlane = new ImageCardMessage(this.currentAuthor);
imageCardMessagePlane.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri("/Images/Filhas.png", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));
imageCardMessagePlane.Title = "Filhas";
imageCardMessagePlane.CardOrientation = CardOrientation.Portrait;
imageCardMessagePlane.ImageDisplayMode = ImageDisplayMode.Stretch;

imageCards.Add(imageCardMessagePlane);

ImageCardMessage imageCardMessageShip = new ImageCardMessage(this.currentAuthor);
imageCardMessageShip.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri("/Images/Casadapaz.png", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));
imageCardMessageShip.Title = "Casadapaz";
imageCardMessageShip.CardOrientation = CardOrientation.Portrait;
imageCardMessageShip.ImageDisplayMode = ImageDisplayMode.Stretch;

imageCards.Add(imageCardMessageShip);

ImageCardMessage imageCardMessageTrain = new ImageCardMessage(this.currentAuthor);
imageCardMessageTrain.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri("/Images/Hotelresidential.png", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));
imageCardMessageTrain.Title = "Hotelresidential";
imageCardMessageTrain.CardOrientation = CardOrientation.Portrait;
