    UI "tick" icon?

    I am deving a mobile application in C# .NET 2.0

    I just had a great idea to make the UI more friendly, ok perhaps not the best idea in the world but i believe I am improving my UI skills.

    I was wondering if there is some way/component/whatever that I can have which, when executed/called upon, I can display a fancy tick icon in a big checkbox?

    I guess I could use the checkbox component but wondering if there is a way to make the tick icon/symbol more bigger/fancier?

    You'd have to draw your own. You can owner-draw a CheckBox, which I'm assuming is possible in the CF, so that you can maintain the appropriate colours regardless of theme, etc. The alternative would be to just use pre-made images. You could create a UserControl with a PictureBox and a Label, then just change the Image in the PictureBox as it was "checked" and "unchecked". You could use PNGs to allow the images to scale if desired.
