If you visited my projects page then you know about silverlight comic builder I am working on. Comic Composer for Facebook is the latest development bringing user created comics strips to Facebook platform. I am currently looking for beta testers to help me to prepare application for general release. Please, leave your comments and suggestions in this post.

It is a common task for developers creating add-ons for World of Warcraft to process wow lua files on the server side. YouPVP, for example, receives lua files generated by an add-on and parses battlegrounds data into the database. Since I was building a website on an asp.net platform, I needed lua parser in C#. Unfortunately, after spending some time on the internet, I couldn’t find any .net solutions that would work for me, so I wrote my own. If you need to parse warcraft lua files in a .net environment, I hope you will find my LuaParse class to be useful.

I am a bit of a fan of colors and consequently of color pickers. First release of Silverlight didn’t provide much help with control development and my first color picker was very simple: four sliders, one for each of the color components of RGBA color.

With release of Silverlight 3.0 developers have a choice of the color pickers made by the enthusiasts and companies specializing in Silverlight controls.

Unfortunately, the only kind of color pickers I could find are based on SV+H model. I figure it is due to Microsoft products favoring that type of color picker. Personally, I prefer HS+V color pickers, commonly used in Adobe products, so I had to sit down and build one myself.

Color picker was my first custom control and quite expectedly I ran into some issues during development, but it was a good learning experience.

Color picker is free to use in any projects. Have fun.
