Default <!> [AS] Book Reader for ZuneHD 1.1

I created brand new BookReader.

Now it supports all languages, info below.

1.Add books in txt format, not .doc or something like that, It won't work.
2.You need Visual Studio 2008 or C# Express 2008 to open the solution and add the books,
3.DON'T FORGET to change the properties of books to Not Compile (Build Action - None) and COPY TO OUTPUT DIRECTORY to Copy if newer.
4.To save bookmark, end reading by hitting Back button.
5.Day/ night reading mod, to make it work, just hit string day reading or night reading
6.To make support for any language to work, you have to add your book into Books normally and plus you must add only content of that book into messages.txt file. But if it's japanese or chinese, there are lots of letters, it takes large amount of time to compile so be ready for that

Looking forward for your suggestions.

Delete old version before deploying new one.

Version 1.1 - Added all languages support (read point 6 or it's not gonna work )
Download - DropBox Public URL

Version 1.0.0.4 - Added Day / Night reading mod
Download - Private FTP

Version 1.0.0.3 - Added Bookmarking system, changed thumbnail, some code changes

Version 1.0.0.2 - Changed font, some minor code update, new thumbnail

I like it. It's very simple and easy to use.

The only things I want to ask for are a different font and perhaps a better menu. There's a bit too much spacing between the letters in the current font for my taste. Other than that, I'm very satisfied.
Great work!!

I agree with the font, i'm gonna try some Gothic types.

Update: New version available.

Cheers. Was using the other one, but for some reason it doesn't want to deploy anymore ...

Anyway, this works nicely, a bit quicker to load then the other one, and I'm diggin the page selecter. Didn't know what it was for at first.

A bookmarking system would be nice though. Otherwise spot-on!

New version 1.0.0.3 available. (Link in first post) Now it supports bookmarking system, to make it work, u must end reading book by hitting the Back button and after that you can exit the app by HW button. I also changed the thumbnail

Delete old version before deploying new one

Great work!!! It is much better than the other one,and... if chinese font,take msyh.ttf for example ,is supported,all zune hd users in China,including me,will be grateful to you sincerely.

However,it's just an advice,if you don't like it,just let it go
