What "growl" type notification windows are available for WPF (windows that appear and fade after X seconds)?

I wanted to know if there are any good "growl" type notification windows available as open source or guided tutorials for WPF applications. I'm looking for a window that can appear when users save for example, notifying them that the save was successful and then disappears after X seconds (with a fade out) without the user needing to take the explicit action to close the notification window. This way for messages/notifications that require no confirmation, like the example, the user would not have to click "OK" to make the messagebox or dialog close.

Why don't you use GrowlForWindows?

You can use C# or VB.

This link could help you:

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/wpf_notifyicon.aspx

It is a Pure WPF implementation of the NotifyIcon class from WinForms and supports almost everything normal WPF controls do :)
