Blackspike worked with the brilliant digital studio UsTwo to help Credit Suisse build a comprehensive and market leading Silverlight dashboard to control, analyse and trade from both the browser and out-of-browser.
Blackspike was hired to make the Joule Silverlight app look great and feel slick and responsive, but not only did we design the app look and feel and build the XAML assets, we also helped out with a PhoneGap mobile site and the HTML5 help system, amongst icons and animations.
We designed and built the front end of this Silverlight airport booking system
A hybrid HTML+Silverlight web app for booking limosines

We mocked this up based on the current WPF version: This project never ended up happening, so for anyone interested, here is the source and Illustrator files should you want to breathe some life into it!
Here’s some free spinners I’ve been making with Blend and Illustrator that you can use as indeterminate loaders for Silverlight or any WPF app, all that needs changing to suit is the storyboard trigger. Enjoy!
As worthless as it comes, here’s a theme we made when Silverlight Beta 2 came out. Of course, Silverlight 2 turned out to be incompatible with Beta 2, so we threw it away. For posterity, you can download the source below. Maybe grab some XAML out of it. Update – check out our new Silverlight […]
The biggest Silverlight piece we have ever built – and one of the biggest Silverlight 2 RIA’s ever made was a fantastic, global project to work on. It took all the live and pre-recorded Setanta sports feeds and displayed them in a fantastically rich web browser app. It had everything from TiVo like programming and […]
This was a Proof Of Concept Silverlight 2 app we helped build for Microsoft/National Rail. In just 3 weeks we created an app that would track all trains on the network at any time, and display their status and position on a map in browser.
