VS 2005 Vista Sidebar Gadget Template

Method ~ of ~ failed - vista dev: updated sidebar gadget templates

"i did a quick refresh on my windows vista sidebar gadget templates for visual studio.  it is a simple refresh that accomplishes the following:

• puts both the VB and C# web project templates in the same visual studio content installer
• moves the structure around to demonstrate how to use locale folders within gadgets (see image below)

i get questions on the first one (VB/C# templates) a lot.  really there is no difference between the templates, the only reason i created two is so that when you choose "new web site" it will show up under both language options.  that's it.  gadget development itself is mostly html/javascript (unless you are using something like script#), so the templates are there for convenience only.

A cool Visual Studio 2005 Project template to help you develop your Vista Sidebar Gadgets...

Included are stubs for docked/undocked appearance, gadget settings, flyout, etc.

Note: To use the template, you need to "Create" a new Web Site.
