fading images in windows forms

Hello,
I have a windows form in a project that was written long ago.
I noticed that all images in this form have a width of 1 pixel, but they are
streched over all the form (from left to right). When they are streched the
right hand of the images is fading. I would like it not to fade.
Any ideas of how to do this?

thanks,

How are they stretched? Using a picture box? Or is it custom drawn?
My guess is that there is some custom drawing going on and it is actually
drawing a gradient from the color in the pixel to the form's background
color.

I want to place a background image on a windows form. Is there a way to prevent the image from Tiling without using an image box resized to the size of the form? I am using Visual Studio 2003 .NET. This is an easy thing to do in VB6.

Using SQL Server 2005 and .NET 2.0; I'm creating a Windows Forms application that will need to display photos of people, along with a bunch of information about each person.

How do I set overlay images for ListViewItems in a Windows Forms ListView? I want to overlay an additional Icon on top of the ListViewItem's icon. Since I can do this in MFC/Win32 I suppose this API is somehow exposed in WindowsForms too ? Or do I have to use P/ Invoke myself? If so, is there an (c#, VB.NET) example around somewhere that shows me how to do it ?
