Shine Draw

Today, Shinedraw will surprise you!!!

http://silverlike.net

It is a Free Silverlight Directory powered by Shinedraw.com

We believe Silverlight, which is used in more websites everyday, has several beautiful free controls, components and tools that will help you develop websites faster and better.

It is not easy to find the free controls as they are hidden inside the blogs of Silverlight developers or .NET products websites and there are still not so many resources where you can read about Silverlight.

Silverlike.net have collected more than 100 free Silverlight controls, components & tools for you. You can see the Demo directly and download the code there. A reference website is also added in the Controls.

Hope you enjoy it and please kindly leave comments
