I've just released some code I've had for a while. This library allows you to use bitmap font images to draw fancy and stylish text to the screen in an XNA project. It was used in Music Island to strings using bamboo-styled text.
More information and downloads are available on the code page.
About a year back I wrote a couple of classes to aid rapid Windows Phone app development in my development group. I've decided to release them on my site and announce them in the hopes that anyone else might be able to make use of them.
This includes these three files: The static TMicrophone class and the static TAccelerometer class, which provide wrappers on the the existing microphone and accelerometer APIs that greatly simplify their use - most useful functionality is available through simple wrapper methods. The final file contains Sprite and SpriteSheet classes that provide simple, lightweight spritesheet loading and sprite creation, with variable-speed playback and circle-to-circle and box-to-box collision.

I was working on adding specular mapping to the normal mapping demo (a technique that imitates the "shininess" of a surface), but I ultimately decided to release the basic code now and perhaps create an updated library later. Enjoy :).
