Yes you can post ones that contain multiple controls.

Yes you can post 2 seperate entries.

When the contest ends I will choose the ones I like the best and then put those up for a vote and the vote decides the winner. If you post more than 1 entry only one will go through to the vote (if I choose it that is lol).

The winner of the contest gets to choose 1 of the prizes listed above...the losers get banned :lol: (yes that last part was a joke!)

Thanks for the info I'll probably choose the domain if I win, since I have minecraft. Or, since I have no need for the domain, I could get minecraft and give it to my cousin

My Entry:

viewtopic.php?f=122&p=70106#p70106

It's a kind of image editor control.

#codedrive , this cannot count as an entry, because you must:

1) Provide a custom control (likely in the form of a DLL)
2) Make it using either VB.NET or C#

Introducing... Weather! Powered by Yahoo! Weather API

It can easily display the weather conditions for almost any major town in the world, using Yahoo!'s WOEID (Where On Earth Identification) number. You can also choose to display in either Celcius or Fahrenheit.

How to use the control
Two custom properties can be changed:

1)UseMetric (Boolean): If set to True, it'll display temperatures using Celcius, if False, Fahrenheit.
2)WOEID (String): This is where you can input the WOEID of the desired location.



Of course, you can also change the properties via code, like so:

Code: Select all

Weather1.WOEID="3534"
Weather1.UseMetric=False

Here are a few WOEID numbers you can use to test it:

- 3534 (Montréal, Québec, Canada)
- 44418 (London, England)
- 2379574 (Chicago, Illinois, USA)
- 851128 (Zagreb, Croatia)

Additionnal IDs can be found here: http://woeid.rosselliot.co.nz/

To get the weather, just use the following line of code:

Code: Select all

Weather1.getWeather()

That's all! Simple as that

[Codex]

Does the custom control have to be something you see or can it be like a function accessed by code ?

[CodenBoy]

soo cool #comathi , from now i choose u as the winner wahooo; :P

[Vikhedgehog]

Can we use API? Like, if I use a network library and make a control that uses some of the code.
