Sorry guys, this is probably an easy one but I'm tired...
How can I create a PictureBox / Image / Whatever can display a GIF file with transparency, through the API (assuming CreateWindowEx here)?

Erm no.. I have to use the API :-)
The point is that I'm going to create a new window so I can add it to other window's title bars... that reminds me a window can't be transparent except when using layer effects, damn!
Would probably be easier to BitBlt a picture there, hm..
Yes, BitBlt it like you would a sprite (with the use of a mask).
(Since I recall you're fairly advanced in GDI/Graphics, I'll assume you know what I mean)
Yes I am. Hoped there could be some workaround since BitBlt is still eating more performance than some internal windows stuff but guess 16x16 pixel won't hurt.
Well I got nearly everything to work now, in the worst case I'll just use a standard button instead of icons ;)
btw I sent you a PM Megatron, hope you can give me a clue..
Whoops, didn't notice. I'll check that now
