I started off by getting the free trials of, and then playing around with, Expression Design and Expression Blend (I got the preview edition of Blend 2). After a very unproductive Saturday all I ended up with, well apart from a but of knowledge of the software, was this:

Sunday was a bit more productive and a lot more fun as I got into programming some C# for the back end of my SilverLight app. I created a generic Button class for my two buttons (left and right) and then created a display panel, for displaying the image. I created the animations in Blend and then programmatically created multiple instances of the display panel to show the different pictures. Here’s what I had at the end of Sunday:

It’s by no means impressive but I think it’s not bad for my first attempt with this new technology :)
