| ASP.NET Naughts and Crosses |
| C# Corner |
| This article demonstrates the basic techniques used to build "ASP.net Noughts & Crosses" (tic tac toe to our American friends). The game uses the native imaging and drawing features of the .net Framework to dynamically generate a JPEG image which displays the game board to the user. Players can take turns to click on the area of the image where they wish to make a move, their move is then submitted to the web server where, if legal, it is drawn onto the board. The application consists of two aspx web pages which each have an associated code behind page. |

| Bypass Graphics.MeasureString limitations |
| The Code Project |
| Graphics.MeasureString can be used to compute the height and width of a text string. Often, however, the dimensions returned do not match the size of what gets drawn on screen when calling Graphics.DrawString. The code I present here can be inserted into any class which needs to compute the real width of a string (shown by the yellow background above). |

| Chart a Course With ASP.NET Graphics |
| Visual Studio Magazine |
| M any Web applications that facilitate data analysis require support for charts and other graphics. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words. Traditional ASP did not support these capabilities, so you had to rely on third-party components or Java applets to get the job done. With ASP.NET, you can leverage the graphics classes in the .NET Framework, opening the door for you to create rich, dynamic charts. |

| Developing Compelling User Controls that Target Forms in the .NET Framework |
| MSDN |
| In the beginning, writing controls meant dealing with Windows messages. Then came Visual Basic controls, which introduced methods, properties, and events. Later, ActiveX controls, which ran atop COM, became popular. While each innovation in control writing brought more flexibility, nothing has matched the versatility of the new .NET Windows Forms controls and Web Forms controls. This article, the first of a two-part series, introduces the reader to Windows Forms, beginning with their inheritance from one of the .NET CLR base classes, which makes control creation much faster than before. Control programming is illustrated through the development of a login control. |

| How to Use a GDI+ Application in NetCOBOL for .NET |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In this how to, we'll explore how to develop a GDI+ (Graphics Device Interface) application using System.Drawing and NetCOBOL for .NET. |

| Introduction to GDI+ |
| GotDotNet |
| GotDotNet's introduction to GDI+. Extract: "The common language runtime takes advantage of an advanced version of the Windows graphics device interface (GDI) called GDI+. GDI+ is designed to provide high performance and ease of use. It supports 2-D graphics, typography, and imaging. " |

| Mandelbrot set in MSIL |
| The Code Project |
| To really be able to program .Net, a good programmer will find themselves using ILDASM, the MSIL disassembler, on a regular basis. This necessitates an ability to, at a minimum, be competent at reading MSIL. Unfortunately, the best way to learn to read MSIL is to spend some time writing it! Thus, I set about thinking of something I could write, which would not be too large, but would cover enough of the concepts to give me an ability to read MSIL. |
