    Like so...

    Hi.

    Well, if you mean you want to see the stars through the picturebox of the lander as the lander moves (which is already like so in the Lander game, if I'm not mistaking), you simply have to set the Picturebox drawstyle property to "Transparent"(the lander's picturebox).

    But If I may suggest, you probably would get more power out of the BitBLT API, which consist in copying the content, or part of the content of a picturebox or form to another picturebox or form at any given position on that picturebox or form. And you can specify if you wish to combine the content of both source and destination images.

    If you wish to know more about the BitBLT api or just api alltogether, read the tutorial on the home page of this site on API, it is quite clear.

    'Hope this could help you.
