For great WPF demos and prototypes, see thirteen23’s work and labs.
I agree I don’t post code for some of the interesting posts only because it has some proprietary stuff…but generally that gets refactored and I eventually post the code.
Some such examples include GlassWindow, Drag Drop Library.
Hopefully that would change in the future :)
Thanks!

Pavan, it is not a problem! :) In any case you are hinting toward the right direction, and that is worth something. If on top of that there is a way to get the source code – that’s a bonus. Thanks.
There is some interesting articles at
http://wpfblogs.media-collective.net/ like
using SCSF Contrib project to create WPF Applications, Reflection Optimization etc..
Thanks, I was looking for these links..WPF seems very interesting.
