Custom providers (MembershipProvider, SiteMapProvider, ProfileProvider)

[Andy B]

I need to have some simple examples of how to do the following:

1. Create an asp.net MembershipProvider from scratch
2. Extend the existing XMLSiteMapProvider that comes with asp.net to include
an image attribute in the SiteMapNode element.
3. Create an asp.net ProfileProvider from scratch.

Does anybody have any links on how to do the above?

Even if you have no desire to use Access ("JET" database would be a better
term) as the backend db, it is a good learning exercise to go through.

Here is another partial:

That's at least some hint(s) on the MembershipProvider.
