ASP.NET CMS with Editable Pic Gallery - asp.net

I have been using BlogEngine for some time as a CMS (Web Forms version). Does anyone know of a plug-in image gallery (need ability to upload, delete, etc.) for BE? Failing that is there, any standalone ASP.NET image gallery out there I could customize and incorporate into BlogEngine?

Going to give this a try - found this in the BE extension gallery:

Wordpress widget - backend button online/offline

Hi all developers — hope there is a clever brain in here who can help.
I have a simple feature I want to implement to a site without much WP backend experience.
It is a "live chat on / off" widget/button which must be visible to operators in the dashboard. It’s purpose is to change a line in header.php / or change stylesheet for changing a picture in the frontend of the website from “offline" to "online”. I don’t have any experience in backend WP, but mostly doing website templates changes with css.
I’ve made a very simple “widget” in the backend - it’s just a wysiwyg editor button.

Thanks in advance.
Therefore you could implement a plugin, which brings along a widget for showing offline or online status on the website's frontend.
As plugins can have a settings page, where options for that offline/online functionality could be saved, it shouldn't be a problem to access the option field in the widget.
Have a look at Wp-Live-Chat-Support and it's screenshots, especially the one with caption Settings page of WP Live Chat Support.

Adding Wordpress Blog to Existing Website: Is Database Required

I have been asked to add a Wordpress blog to an existing website and wanted to ask the group a few tech questions.
The website is static, does not run with a database in the background, was created with plain html/css and is hosted on a generic server.
If I were to add a blog to this site, would I need to set up a database to hold the content?
If no database is needed, could content be uploaded/removed using ftp software one would normally use to manage a website like this?
Could the original Wordpress navigation and css be replaced with the css and navigation for the website?
Could the blog support widgets like as 'like' or 'add this' without the use of a database?
If anyone has insights they can share I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Peter
If you want to install WordPress, you will need a database. Check the codex for the full list of requirements for installing WP.
Other than this, yes, you can mimic the navigation and design of the main website by creating a custom theme.

Integrate Wordpress with ASP.NET website

I want to integrate Wordpress on my .NET website. I have already read this can be difficult, however, the integration I'm looking for appears to be rather straightforward to me.
The only area of my site that needs to be Wordpress enabled is the /articles part of my website.
This means that the Wordpress articles will need to adopt the style of my .NET masterpage.
My thought now is that this should be possible by having Wordpress serve articles without a design applied to it (just the raw HTML without CSS), so that I may apply the CSS of my current .NET website.
Is this possible without iframing the Wordpress content and if so how to set that up in Wordpress?
And will it also be possible to have the facetted navigation structure of article tags that Wordpress offers out of the box?
Thanks!

.Net 1.1: asp.net photo gallery

I don't know if you guys remember back in .Net 1.1 there is a ASP.net photo gallery web application on www.asp.net site.
Does anyone know what happen to the project? Is it dead? Where can i find the source code?
Thank.
p.s. I don't remember what the project was called. It was out at the same time the ASP.net personal website was released.
I'm wondering if you're thinking about the PhotoGallery Workspace on the old GotDotNet site?
That site has been taken down now, but the author of the Project (if it's the same one you're thinking of) is Jason Gaylord. He's got a working version of the gallery on his site.
That is the only one I can remember from that era.
