Create a DeskBand in C#

Normally I'd steal the credit, but this is too cool...

http://www.thecodeproject.com/csharp...&select=862248

This is exactly what I was looking for...it's very cool! After going through the sample code, though, I'm at a loss as to how to turn this into something I can distribute with the application I'm working on. The DLL files that are produced are not registerable outside the project (at least not with standard regsvr32...as near as I can tell)

Is this just something fun for us to do on our own workstations and not make it distributable? Anyone tried using this in a distributed application yet?

Thanks,

Oh, I probably should mention that I'm also going to be interested in having my deskband communicate with an existing application--kinda like the way iTunes works (minimized view displays the deskband). Anyone done anything like that before?

The DLLs created are to be registered in the GAC, if I remember correctly. A decent package and deployment program should have that as an option.
