Another newbie question,

Is it possible to have a transparent background on an image control. i.e. putting a round pic on a square image control and not have the white background around the edges.

I guess another good question could be, is it possible to have shaped image controls?

P.S. Since I'm a true newbie programmer and on limited time, can anyone direct me to a good source for VB assistant programs (Like VB Shaped Form Creator, etc.)

Thank you for any help you can provide,
abrahm
 
Its easier then you would think,

First the images have to be gifs....
Then set there transparent color....
Then use IMAGE BOXED.

If your paint program doesnt support transparency download the demo of paint shop pro 7.

I can provide specific help for psp 7.
