I have been playing around with the Silverlight progressbar a while and no matter what color (Foreground) I set it too it stays dull and ugly-ish.

I wonder why this is since I’m using Silverlight 5.0 on a windows 7 machine, .NET 4.5 and the windows 7 default progressbar looks stunning.

I searched a lot for it and I did find some commercial solutions where you could pay to get prettier controls, but I don’t want to do that (since it may not work for all I know).

How can I make my progressbar look nicer?

    you might have a look at the blacklight controls.
    In my opinien the loading animation is really nice (It is not a progress bar, but if you add a percentage loaded display it is kind of 😉 ). You can find it under animated controls.

    Hope this helps.

    BR,
