Click here to download a zip file containing my version of the program. Extract the folder named XNA0124Proj from the zip file and save it somewhere on your disk. Start Visual C# 2010 Express and select Open Project... from the File menu. Navigate to that folder and select the file with the extension of .sln . This should cause the project to open and be ready to run or debug as described in the earlier module titled Getting Started .

This section contains a variety of miscellaneous information.
Financial : Although the Connexions site makes it possible for you to download a PDF file for thismodule at no charge, and also makes it possible for you to purchase a pre-printed version of the PDF file, you should beaware that some of the HTML elements in this module may not translate well into PDF.
I also want you to know that, I receive no financial compensation from the Connexions website even if you purchase the PDF version of the module.
In the past, unknown individuals have copied my modules from cnx.org, converted them to Kindle books, and placed them for sale on Amazon.com showing me as the author. Ineither receive compensation for those sales nor do I know who does receive compensation. If you purchase such a book, please beaware that it is a copy of a module that is freely available on cnx.org and that it was made and published withoutmy prior knowledge.

A complete listing of the XNA program discussed in this module is provided in Listing 11 . Note the changes that were made in the calls to the SpriteBatch.Begin method to upgrade the program from XNA 3.1 to XNA 4.0. Blending was turned offin the first call just in case there were pixels in the background image having a color that matches the key color value.
Listing 11 . The class named Game1 for the project named XNA0124Proj.
/*Project XNA0124Proj
* Illustrates displaying a sprite with color key* transparency in front of a background image.
* Must modify the color key property value for the ufo* sprite, changing the key color from the default of
* 255,0,255 (magenta or magic pink) to 0,255,0 (green).* The scale and the origin of the background image is
* changed over time giving the illusion of a ufo* flying over a planet.
