Hi!

Kedaman made one for someone a long time ago...I think it's still on his site: http://www.kedaman.com
:)
I know that, but it looks like he removed it from his pages. So how about it kedaman? Can you pleeeease help :)
Thanks anyway SteveCRM!
If you mean to make part of your picture transparent, just save it as a .gif file with a transparent background. most photo editors allow you to make one color trasparent. It should be in the Save As... menu.
GIF sucks! If you need a sprite control, there's one on my website...
I agree with you Fox :)
Actually, I need this for my application, for drawing various shapes, gradients, etc. Since the VB's Shape control cannot be selected at run-time, this is a bit unconvenient. I thought that it would be easier to make the PictureBox transparent and then draw things on it, then to create a custom UserControl...but it looks like I'll have to that...
nope! i never remove stuff from my homepage, at least not transparent controls! it actually seems to be the link that didn't work. fixed now:

Thanks kedaman, but that's not what I wanted :(
I want to be able to print shapes, circles, etc. ON the picture box, so that only those areas are visible.
Well... nevermind, I created my own control for this. It works for now :)
kedamen,
I tried to download your transparent PictureBox Control but apparently the link is broken again. Can you send me a copy.
Thanks,

Well the link works but Geocities does this oftenly, you just wait some hours and it works again
