All right everyone well I put together a date time picker control and I'll be expanding on this and adding many controls over the next couple of weeks.

Sorry about that. It's published now. The reason for the date picker control is there is not one supplied in the Windows namespace for windows 8 store apps. It's not that special at the moment but it drove me nuts so I figured it's good enough to use for now until I can revise it / add more features on the weekends when I'm not at work :) Feel free to use this for any of your projects I don't feel people should have to pay for such basic controls. If I do release a paid version later it'll be a separate namespace for advanced controls most likely.

Hey, 25 downloads. Probably out of just curiosity but still that's great :) I'll add a calendar control (maybe with support for holding important dates/events and what not in it) this weekend and maybe a few other bells and whistles.
