What is a good openid selector control?

Now that idselector has been upgraded to RPXNow and you can't "just use" the selector code, what is a good replacement?

I want to implement OpenId on a new website that I am using, but the users are going to be just dumb when it comes to logging in unless I provide an easy way for them to.

As a reference, I will be using .Net Open Id for the background in an ASP.Net MVC web application.


EDIT

After some cheap thought, what about using the rpxlib?

Jarrett Vance made a "version" of open-selector that is much more developer/designer friendly.

This selector is different because it does not hide the markup details in javascript. Therefore, you can easily add new providers or rearrange the existing ones without digging into the javascript. The login form will still work for normal OpenID logins if javascript is disabled

The best of all, is that it comes with documentation, demo, and lots of images both cropped and as raw .pdn files (paint.net)

Jarrett Vance's openid-selector can be found here

PS: I would suggest reading this article before implementing RPX.
