: Is Azure compatible with JPEG XR? I just put an F#/MVC app into a Windows Azure solution as a Web Role. Before migration, my JPEG XR (*.WDP) files were getting displayed on the client in

I still haven't figured out an easy way to get the JPEG XR and downloadable F# code files to go into the *.cspkg file, but I did get the files to work on my Web Role. I had to follow Mr. Vipul Patel's instructions in his article Using Windows Azure Storage Service to Upload Files to create a storage service and then put the affected files in the blob.

Once the files were uploaded into the blob per Mr. Patel's instructions, I could easily verify their existence and my Web Role was able to access them via an absolute URL.

I'm still a bit dissapointed, however, that I had to go through this effort. When I code at home, I am a hobbyist on a budget so the added cost of having to create a storage service is not necessarily welcome as I learn skills that may or may not someday transfer to my day job.
