Hey man, do you know if there is anyway to paste an image from the clipboard into a silverlight control? I’m guessing you’d need to use 1.1.
Thanks

hi,
I love to see blogs like yours and hope to see more Silverlight stuff. I am bulding as a college project a Silverlight app and need more info about video players and streaming with Silverlight 1.1 . I am new to c# and silverlight and i’m kinda stuck with not many books about it.
I don’t really like JavaScript. Would you please help me with any tutorials than can help me learn about using SIlverlight 1.1 and javascript? Cheers.

Hi Vivek,
I have been immersed in Silverlight 2 since the release (my wife screams “I want my husband back” as I write this). I played with the previous version but not enough to lose a lot of sleep over.
Your blog has taught me a lot! You keep coming up in my google searches for “scaletransform animation dynamic silverlight 2″ and other things that have been boggling my brain for the past 2-3 months.
My only gripe about SL2 right now is a selfish one — I’m one of those 0.05 percent browser users who loves Opera. Not that I dislike the other browsers – FF3 and IE8 show tons of promse, and Safari 3 is really pretty snappy on a PC.
One question – Is SL 2.0 final slated before the 8-8-8 start of the Olympics? The MSNBC Olympics site isn’t being done in 1.0 is it?

Hi V,
As a fellow Heptanesian, I congratulate you.
Also, I have a small question. In Silverlight2 – Beta 2, I can’t seem to trap the MouseLeftButtonDown event.
Any suggestions?

Carry on Hepetanesian. I have just checked out PaxPlatform at Codeplex. Hope you’ll be able to find love of Sophie. I like your blog post on Silverlight very much.
