How To Create a Silverlight Slideshow of your SharePoint Picture Library
Allthough I try to post as much original content as possible, I see sometimes "How To" articles that are just absolutely amazing. And when they are in an area that I think is particulary interesting, like Silverlight within SharePoint, I just have to try if it works and write a post about it.
The article I am referring to is "Using Silverlight SlideShow and a SharePoint Picture Library" from Isaac Stith. He is a SharePoint Developer, Silverlight Hobbyist, and WPF Student from Copenhagen, Denmark and posts tons of great content on his blog "SharePoint Evolved".
The goal of his two part article is to explain how to get the SilverLight SlideShow working with your Picture Library as a data source for the slideshow. The end result should look something like this:
The work of Isaac is based on the Silverlight Slideshow that you can find on Codeplex. Silverlight Slideshow is an open-source, light-weight and fully functional image slideshow developed by Koen Zwikstra from First Floor Software. Visit the Silverlight Slideshow page on his site and watch the demos to get an idea of what this Slideshow is capable of.
Many thanks to both Koen and Isaac for their great work in the area of using Silverlight within SharePoint!
