Paint.net, Cool!!!

Yesterday I had been searching for news about the framework, and I saw this project, Paint.net.
It started developing at Washington State University as an undergraduate senior design project mentored by Microsoft, and it's currently being maintained by some of the alumni that originally worked on it. Originally intended to be a free replacement for the MS Paint software that comes with Windows, it has grown into a powerful yet simple tool for photo and image editing. The programming language used to create Paint.NET is C#, with a small amount of C++ for setup and shell-integration related functionality.

Cool Lib for CoolComponents

I just started working on a new lib for free use, the Cool Lib. As of now, it has two components a MineCamp for a MineSeeker, which I called GoMines (it's very pretty), and a PieChart with 3D style, both components were made entirely in GDI, they dont't use OpenGL. I use Visual Basic 8, but I'm thinking of writing it on C#, it's the same thing in the end. If you want to use any of these Components, contact me. The code for both of them needs to be revised for style, but it does its job. See you around folks.

Destination AJAX

I feel bad, just because of Ajax. I don't know anything about asp.net and less about Ajax and Atlas lib (just the names). But Ajax is cool, very cool, and good stuff to know. You can make a web page with the same GUI as desktop application without the need to refresh the hole page, only the part that you need. Google Maps uses Ajax. As the title says it: New Course is establish, Destination AJAX
