I know this question is asked a lot, but there is no tip on it. How can I make a bitmap transparent. (In paint or with code will do, I am getting paintshop pro tonight so could that do it)

I don't get you, do mean you want the background of the picture be transperant or what?
because for a start there are only 2 types of pictures that support transparency and bitmap isn't one of them
1 is gif and I can't remember the name of the other one.
I do mean the background of the image. i can always change it to a gif, that isn't any problem at all.

I think this is the one dmuir is refering to:
http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...=1&blnFrm=true
but could be a different one
and this one does the same but with the white pixels (can be changed)

goto www.planet-source-code.com and lookup TransBitBlt
This will copy a bitmap and treat any black pixels as transparent.
good luck,
