New user, Few questions :)

Hey all I saw the library's here and thought they would make a much better suite for what I am doing over deep zoom/other mapping api's. I have a few questions tho

• Am I able to use my own map image? Eg I have 24 images that consist of a map
• Is it possible for me to generate my own cordinats , E.g top left corner = xy0 and bottom right = 15000
• Can I dynamically add content via a database (Using WFC services ofc)
• If the first two are possible is there any "beginner" documentation, So far I can only find the forums and the documentation on the library.

I put them in order of importance, Thank you for reading!

You can use ArcGISImageServiceLayer http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/apiref/ESRI.ArcGIS.Client~ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.ArcGISImageServiceLayer.html

Is it possible for me to generate my own cordinats , E.g top left corner = xy0 and bottom right = 15000

Sure, you can convert these screen coordinates to map coordinates: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#MouseCoords

Can I dynamically add content via a database (Using WFC services ofc)

Here's a blog post on sending geometry back and forth with WCF: http://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/silverlightwpf/archive/2010/03/11/Sending-geometry-between-Silverlight-and-the-server-using-WCF.aspx

If the first two are possible is there any "beginner" documentation, So far I can only find the forums and the documentation on the library.
