sounds like you need alpha blending..which is a slow process unless you use D3D or openGL for it.
if you're not using them, and only need a static image, have a look on code sites for alpha blending: you will find stuff, and it should be fine as long as it's a simple background (not moving)
one of those Webpages, where you can find help is http://www.ur.co.nz but I think it works only with 8-bit bitmaps. But it is quite fast for VB! You Could use it for some movement, but only very limeted.
