Does anyone know a good data binding tutorial for beginners? I'm trying to get it to work for the last few hours and my head is spinning already.. Is there any simple tutorials, WITHOUT unnecessary code where is shown how just bind property to a variable and something like that?
You could try this CodeProject article, code samples in it seem pretty small and straight forward. Though if you're having specific issues, you should post those as questions and someone will help you figure it out.

Definitely something that's very, very useful!
I spent a long time trying to understand how to even do the most simple of binding... the syntax just didn't make any sense to me. When I finally stumbled across this tutorial, it felt like a light bulb suddenly turned on. Extremely simple, step-by-step explanations helped me understand the relation between the visual element and the code-behind.

This is my first time using WPF, I find it extremely convenient, but I am not up to date on all that is (not) possible with it, such as the MVVM, and I'm having trouble finding the right parameters to call in the XAML files.
I am writing an IRC-based game. When someone writes a command, I want that person's avatar to be visible on my (local) application, and depending on what he wrote, I want the avatar to have a different animation. For example, "move a little bit forward, and slash with a sword". I figure I'd use a storyboard to translate the position, and switch to a different .gif sourcefile to slash the sword.
Right now, I am horribly stuck on trying to 'change' a storyboard, like change from 'move forward and backward' to 'jump up and down'. I found some related questions which answer pieces and parts, but I can't put 1 and 1 together. Most likely because I am missing basic WPF knowledge.
So my questions:
Could you give me some sources that help me become comfortable with WPF (coming from a C#/XNA/WinForms background)?
And, could you tell me how to tackle a problem where I want to have multiple images, use the same set of storyboards on all of them, and frequently switch both images and storyboards?
You can find a lot of basic information at this CodeProject article series. And this one talks about storyboard animation.
Documentation. BOoks. There ARE decent books about WPF.

<EDIT>
About this question being off-topic and too opinion-based, I'll try to be more clear. My goal was to undestand if such a tool existed, I was not interested in opinions about what was the best one. At the time I wrote this question I spent quite a good amount of time searching the internet and found just old dead projects but such a tool for java existed and I couldn't belive there were nothing for c#.
I think this question is related to programming (code verification), and it is not really asking for an opinion. Also, it's still not easy to find this information and I think my answer could help saving someone's time.
That said, I'm not an expert of stackoverflow, if you still think the question/answer does not fit the site feel free to delete it.

I've found Moonwalker http://fmt.cs.utwente.nl/tools/moonwalker/ but the last update has been done in 2009 and i don't think it supports .net4.5 (and it's poorly documented).
The answer to this question propose CodeContracts as a model checking tool Model checking tool c# but I've tried using it and I don't think it really is a model checker, not in the same way Java Path Finder for Java is. Im i worng? Can it be used like JPF?
I need to be able to known if a certain part of code is designed in a way that can deadlock. Let's say it's a school thing and even if I'm sure my code is working I must model check it. (Yes we are allowed and encouraged to look on the internet).
As the user #HighCore said, and after lot of searching i can say that a mature and up-to-date tool like the one I described does not exist.
Model checking refers usually to explicit methods, however symbolic methods are equally advanced and arguably more capable for establishing properties of actual code.
For a Turing complete language, the verification problem is undecidable, so model-checking tools usually accept a less powerful language as input. This implies having to convert your problem to that language, before checking. This is why you have not come across any "C# model checking tool".
Have you looked at Boogie and the C#-like Dafny ? These are (essentially) for annotating with Hoare logic.
Alternatively, you can consider model checking your C# solution after (manually) translating it to Promela, then using SPIN.
Related tools (e.g. C-to-Promela translators) are listed here.

I'm working on the implementation of Artificial Bee Colony algorithm in optimization of fuzzy c-means clustering. Can anyone provide a link for C# library or class that might help in the code of the ABC algorithm?
I think this should help. Its a ready to implement ABC algorithm library written in C++ that I had developed.
Google doesn't immediately seem to reveal a C# implementation of the ABC algorithm, though there is a Java implementation which should translate quite well to C#.
ABC souds similar to ant colony optimisation. I found this app, which you can probably get the source for if you contact the authors. It requires .NET, so it might as well be written in C#. It's not exactly what you asked for, but it's something ;)
There is a recent article in MSDN magazine that has an implementation in C#, on a specific problem. It should provide a good starting point!

I have been looking for a great code arrangement tool for c#. It would be nice to have something that can arrange code into regions etc and put items into alphabetical order.
I have tried NArrange and while it works well it is a little clunky in the integration department and did give us issues mixing up xml comments.
Any recommendations free > paid would be fantastic.
Thanks.
Not free(sorry), but take a look to Resharper.
Have a look at regionerate
I use fxCop along with the r# plugin and find it pretty ok
What is the benefit of ordering methods alphabetically? Shouldn't they rather be ordered logically according to the problem they solve. Generally I believe that if you have so many methods in a class/file that you think it makes sense to order them alphabetically your model is wrong, and it would be more beneficial to split your code in more classes/files.
With regards to regions, I have a hard time seeing what the benefit is. I recommend that you read Jeff Atwood's (CTO of stackoverflow) blog post on regions.

Looking for an open source library, for C++, Java, C# or Python, for reading the data from Quicken .qdf files.
#Swati: Quicken .qif format is for transfer only and is not kept up to date by the application like the .qdf file is.
QDF is proprietary and not really meant for reading other than my Quicken, probably for a reason as it is messy.
I would recommend finding a way to export the qdf into an OFX (Open Financial Exchange) or qif file. I have done some financial and quickbooks automation and I did something similar. The problem is if you don't export to an exchange format, each version differs and strange things happen for many conditions that since they aren't documented (QDF) it becomes a bad situation for the programmer.
OFX is what allows online banking, brokerages and apps like mint.com securely get financial data. It is a standard and consistent. Finding a way to this is much better if at all possible.

And i know one other blog where the author was developing a parser for qfx/qif... lemme look it up... googling hasnt helped yet :(
Update: Found one more:
