Media Center Style app

I was wondering how I can make a GUI that looks lik开发者_StackOverflowe Media Center, so like this:

I don't know if it can be done with simple c# .net or if I have to use WPF or something. (The app needs to be written in C# style)

I found a couple of tutorials for WPF but nothing I can use to create such an nice looking GUI.

Hope somebody knows some good tutorial / sample code so I can begin my "home project"

Thanks in advance!

You could do it with anything, but using WPF or silverlight would make it easier to do the animation/transitions and things.

I'd suggest looking at Expression Blend and the tutorials for that, like those at http://www.microsoft.com/design/toolbox

Yes you can do that with WPF. I cant say I have seen such a WPF app, but Silverlight is the same thing and I see stuff like that in Silverlight all the time. You are going to need some experience with WPF and GUI programming, I have this book and I find its great: 3D Game Development with Microsoft Silverlight 3: Beginner's Guide
