You should also take a look at the API documentation, and this video tutorial for advanced magnet creation (more video tutorial are coming by the way).

If you have any question, suggestions, feel free to ask

I need your help !

I’m currently working on a new magnet called “Big Folders”.
Basically it shows you a top 10 of largests folders on your hard drive, very handy when you need to free some space, and you have no idea where to find this space.
Everything works fine, it’s almost completed, but I need a good looking user interface for that. So if one of you has some photoshop, illustrator, or expression design skills, please send me some visuals I can use for this [...]

Weather magnet is gold …

And in case you wonder, here is a screenshot of the magnet running.

If this is the case you will probably see more updates of myBoard, and bugs being fixed much faster pretty soon
Also, .NET 3.5 SP1 being now available, I’m currently working on adding the 3D ripple effect when you drop a [...]

What’s up with myBoard ?

As you can see, I haven’t released a new version of myBoard for a while now. As you probably know, myBoard is a personnal project, and as it gets more complex, more time is required to improve it.
The other thing is that myBoard is supposed to be a platform so C# developpers could create kick ass magnets way more advanced than what you can see on Yahoo widget for instanced. And so far, I haven’t seen much from the community [...]
