3D Geometry Library (Basic Classes) and 3D Drawing using VB.Net
This article explains a 3D Geometry library developed using VB.Net
3D text in WPF

Outline font technologies such as TrueType primarily provide us with typographical flexibility and accuracy, but they can also serve as graphical playthings. Programmers can get access to the actual outlines that define each text character and treat them as vector graphics objects. The outlines can be stroked, filled, used for clipping, or subjected to transforms. A popular feature in Microsoft Word known as WordArt is based on this concept.

It's important to recognize the nature and limitations of these character outlines: they are strictly geometrical and are missing the "hints" that the operating system normally uses to render fonts on the screen. These hints allow the characters to be rasterized intelligently based on the available pixel grid. Consequently, the unhinted character outlines look best in big font sizes or on high-resolution devices. They are usually not adequate for rendering text at normal font sizes on the screen. (However, as printer resolution gets higher and as antialiasing is used more for screen graphics, the value of hinting has decreased)..

Capture Entire Web Page
I have seen other articles that describe how to accomplish this, but had no luck in getting any to work with Internet Explorer 7. This is a simple example that captures a webpage, inlcuding elements below the fold, and saves it as an image.

All-in-one printing utility for user controls
This printing utility is a combination of two efforts. It has the ability to print the content of user controls and it is, moreover, an attempt to create an "all-in-one" printing utility. The latter is an integration into a single control of what is otherwise spread across several standard dialogs for printer properties, page setup options and print previewing..
