Are you a Control Freak?(frickinsweet.com)

submitted by dengar007(3084) 3 years, 2 months ago

In my opinion, this is a mixed blessing, however, for some, this is a show stopper. What can you do to provide a rich user interface with the MVC framework, while not reinventing the wheel? read more...

Visual Studio Theme Generator(frickinsweet.com)

submitted by dengar007(3084) 3 years, 9 months ago

A fun little ASP.NET MVC Application I wrote to generate Visual Studio themes based off of 3 given colors. I have always felt that selecting every color to make a decent theme is way too repetitive. This web application automatically chooses complements / contrasts based off your initial color selections (and uses jQuery to let you preview your theme before creating). Check it out and let me know what you think. read more...
