About the Silverlight MobileMe Gallery

The goal in one sentence is to create an exact replica, feature-for-feature match of the MobileMe Gallery using 100% Silverlight.
This project began as a way to experiment with and learn the new features in Silverlight 3. Check out the blog post that introduced the idea: Recreating the MobileMe Gallery in Silverlight 3

In addition to learning the features in Silverlight 3, I also wanted to experiment with using Expression Blend 3 as a compliment to Silverlight development. Therefore, all graphics (rss button, image slider, etc) and toolbar items were created/styled using Expression Blend 3.

Key Features & Success Criteria:

• Play MPEG-4 (.m4v) files using Silverlight without the need for QuickTime
• Photo Album and Movie “Scrubbing” (if you view the sample above, you’ll see what I mean when you mouse over an album or movie)
• Full featured photo album with all the features (and views) of the one built-in to MobileMe Gallery
• Utilize the photos/movies already stored on MobileMe Gallery (no separate upload or storage mechanism required)
• Support same URL structure as MobileMe: http://gallery.me.com/[username]
  • Work with ANY MobileMe username: http://gallery.restazured.com/[username]
• 100% Silverlight implementation
