Silverlight Control Templates

Project Description
Replace the default look of Silverlight controls with animated templates.
This project provides you with ready-to-use templates for your Silverlight projects.

See the samples for yourself.
It currently features templates for the following types of controls:
Button (3 templates: pen, accelerator, card reader)
ProgressBar (1 template: speed gauge)

You can expect this list to grow quickly (see below).
All the templates are provided as XAML resource dictionnaries for easy inclusion in your projects. Those include the XAML source code.

Some background info
I build those templates as samples during my Silverlight trainings. My students choose an item in the room and I create it as a template.
As such, I should publish new templates frequently.
