Walt Ritscher created a great tool that lets you easily work with WPF shader effects, called Shazzam. This tool makes it very easy to grab some shader code, perhaps off the internet, try out various input values, see what effect they have on images, and then grab some generated source code (C# or VB) and paste it into your app. Very cool!
-Josh Smith

A must have for [the] HLSL dev. - Jon Galloway

I just got a chance to test this tool out. Took me 30 seconds to notice how f-ing awesome it is! I was looking for a VS shader template to save some time, but this blows it out of the water! Great job! Thank you!
