JSON to C# classes Issue

Question

I am fairly new to working with JSON and I have a bit of an issue with a JSON response I am getting from a web service. I've tried a bunch of online "JSON to c# class" generators and none of them seem to work with this specific bit of JSON. I am working with the Pocket API and the response I get below. Can anyone point me in the right direction for formatting this in to classes?

    {
    "status": 1,
    "list": {
        "229279689": {
            "item_id": "229279689",
            "resolved_id": "229279689",
            "given_url": "http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/38347/ryder-cup-   preview",
            "given_title": "The Massive Ryder Cup Preview - The Triangle Blog - Grantland",
            "favorite": "0",
            "status": "0",
            "resolved_title": "The Massive Ryder Cup Preview",
            "resolved_url": "http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/38347/ryder-cup-preview",
            "excerpt": "The list of things I love about the Ryder Cup is so long that it could fill a (tedious) novel, and golf fans can probably guess most of them.",

            "images": {

            },

                "1": {
                    "item_id": "229279689",
                    "video_id": "1",

                    "width": "420",
                    "height": "315",
                    "type": "1",
                    "vid": "Er34PbFkVGk"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Thanks for any pointers,

Answer 1

A little bit tricky, but this should work. ( Because of the property names like 229279689)

var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>(json);

public class MyImage
{
    public string item_id { get; set; }
    public string image_id { get; set; }
    public string src { get; set; }

    public string height { get; set; }
    public string credit { get; set; }
    public string caption { get; set; }
}

    public string width { get; set; }
    public string height { get; set; }

}

public class MyListItem
