Rich Asp.Net User Control

[Maurizio Alberti]

Hi,
I would like to create a rich (graphic)
ASP.NET User Control with GDI+
and I'm able to do it.
I have two question about this:

1-I would like to include a background image
(for example a jpg file) without shipping a
distinct file with my control, it's possible?

2-I save the generated image in a subfolder
with write-permission for the IUSR_<SERVERNAME>
but i don't like this solution, some suggestion?

Thanks

M

Yes, you can embed resource files into your assemblies.
Here's more information:

But this isn't so slick for web controls. ASP.NET 2.0 will provide better
support for embedding images in web controls.

Should reach release by christmas hopefully.

BETA 1 is out and available to play with, but you can't publish.

BETA 2 will have a publish license and should be out this first
quarter was the last inklings I had heard.
