We downloaded Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio installer and started installing but it halted on my machine as I don’t have internet connection availble on my machine. This was a problem because anybody who wants to do it will not be able to install unless he or she has internet connection. Then we started spoofing where the Silverlight tools setup was pointing to ( o

We’re going this afternoon to talk to the apartment manager.  I really hope he gives us the go ahead

Once a subject of heated discussions, the native vs. cross-platform skinning has not been mentioned for quite some time in Swing blogosphere. While this post by no means aims to revive the dead ghosts, i saw something quite interesting in the PDC session on the Windows 7 Explorer. It looks like (at least in the current builds) Microsoft has decided to enforce better consistency across the UI layer of its flagship desktop products, including Office and Media Player.

I can understand your confusion though. This is another shining example of corporate ignorance when it comes to design. Pepsi spent 5 months and over $1 million to come up with what looks like what a 5th grader created in 10 minutes using Microsoft Paint. Sorry, but it’s that bad. These types os logos are the products of current undergrad design students who have never picked up a pencil or pa
