I believe you can add a pic frame and insert a photo, but if you need the form to have a background, you'll need to go to the form's properties, find picture are, then insert a photo.

I should perhaps tell you, you may have to find the photo you need firsthand, then determine whether it is big enough to fit your form.

Good luck!

you need to use third party controls

re: How to Change Background of Menu in vb6

no, you don't need 3rd party controls at all
Just use win32 api (easy)
