    Depends on what you're going to use it for, if it's just for an image on a form or something, use the Image control instead of a Picturebox and load a transparant GIF into it...

    or transparent icon if you need 24 bit colors
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    Well, I had this weirdest thing with icons. I created an 128x128 16m color icon (which is possible btw, Axialis AX-Icons can handle them well), and loaded it into a picturebox. It would display perfectly on my own system, but some other systems had problems with the icon somehow. A GIF or even a Bitmap worked perfectly...

    I normally use Animation Shop, but there are a lot of programs available at download sites...
