Live From Redmond: Creating Real World Web Application UI with Master Pages, Themes and Site Navigation

A few days ago, I presented a Live From Redmond: Creating Real World Web Application UI with Master Pages, Themes and Site Navigation in an on demand web cast.  For my first presentation, it went pretty well.  I had never used Live Meeting before, and had only had one Live Meeting "Goofup", where I forgot to shift over to the desktop, instead of the slides.

The presentation went well, but admittedly, there was a lot of information presented, an hour was really way too short to do everything that I wanted to talk about.  In fact, I cut out a good chunk of stuff as I was moving through in order to get through to site navigation and themes in the last few minutes. 

In any event, I had said that I would offer the sample for download after the presentation, and so here it is. You can download it at https://www.nocommonground.com/blogSamples/finishedsite.zip. It's about 6 megs to download but contains everything that I demo'ed in it's completed form, so you can use that as a sample for where you want to go.

    I have already download this sample and its really awsome.

    It works very very smoothly and i am really impressed with the navigation and presentation of 3 themes.

    Is it possible to supply LIQUID CSS for this. I think many will be using 1024 x 768 so this would be great to develop in this size as Liquid, since it can work smoothly in 800 x 600 also.

    I hope you have understood.

    Thanks

    Sure Pete, but I've had no audio for the entire cast and no one even bothered trying to solve the problem. Your response at the end of the webcast was: "Just watch the on-demand" version. Congratulations

    Loved your Live Meeting.  I am working on trying to create some websites with asp.net in the near future and I really needed this course for help.

    Thanks,

    One question:  Why does visual developer always have a heading that takes up the whole page?

    You're the first blogger I see who doesn't publish reader's comments. Shame.

    hi Simone.

    Sorry you feel that I don't publish readers comments.  I try to stay active on my blog, but sometimes other things come first, and I don't get a chance to approve comments as quicky as I would like.  

    There was no call in number for the live meeting, and there was little I could do to help you, without stopping the entire presentation for all of the other people involved.  Hopefully the on demand version provided the audio.

    Hi Paggy4u,

    I'm not sure what you mean by a liquid version?

    Thanks for posting this LiveDemand; I missed the first 20 minutes of the live presentation, but from what I did see, you did a good job over covering a lot of topics in a short period of time. Anybody that takes the time to view this download will learn enough on the step by steps involved with a lot of 2.0 features. Hopefully, they'll appreciate the solid foundation this video provides enough to dig deeper into 2.0.

    Best regards,

    Michael
