The cool thing about these controls is that they are stylable or skinnable, and a designer friend of mine and I have created three sets of skins for the controls listed above that you can now leverage. Check out my new blog<\/a> to view the samples live or to download the samples, so you can use them in your application (I’ve also provided details about how to incorporate the control skins into a project and any skin specific code, there is a little tiny bit for one set of skins, that is needed is available in both VB and C#, so everyone can use the skins with their favorite language :))<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
