We have just updated the Windows Live Gadget SDK for June. For the most part, this is just a minor release. Changes in this update includes the following:
- Added Developer"s Checklist that enumerates items that well-written Gadgets should comply with.
- Updated guidance on adding icons for Gadgets to reflect changes to the Live.com site. Images for Gadget icons should be in .GIF format instead of .PNG format.
- All images in samples have been updated to use .GIF format.
- Added more information in the Avoiding Memory Leaks section of the Developer"s Guide.
- Added a new section on how to Disable Caching in IE in the Developer"s Guide.
Please let us know if you have any feedback!
thanks,
James Lau
