I've seen a few addins that have use various dialogs as part of their implementation\usage.
Are these just standard dialogs with a WHS looking background image or does the sdk have custom dialogs?Thanks.

The SDK doesn't have custom dialogs that I know of.
But you can easily use the standard ones of .NET.
In my case I just adjust the background color, but there is nothing special to them.Hope that answers your question.

That's great, I've implemented a standard dialog but it obviously looks out of place in the console.
Where did you get the background image from? I cannot see anything obvious.
Thanks.

Have a look at these: http://www.brendangrant.com/WHS/WHSDevTips.htm. There is a custom MessageBox that WHS provides, if that's what you're after.

An example would be the About dialog that you have on your disk management app.
The WizardTopBanner appears to be that image I had in mind, thanks for that Sam.
