Hello,
Does any bitmap picture has transparent color (by the left top dot of the
bitmap - anything with the same color is a transparent color), or there is
other thing I should declare in the bitmap.
(If I put it on an HTML page, or in a flash, etc ...)
Besides,
I want a good free tool for viewing and editing bitmaps (a little bit better
than the standard paint-brush), please.
Thanks :)

bitmaps do not have transparency. You need a gif or a png file for that.
I use any of:
paintbrush on windows XP handles gif format
MS Office photo editor
PSP 3
PSP 8
Doubtless others have suggestions for programs to use.

Generally, no. It requires that the image format contains information
about which colors are transparent.
The GIF format can mark one palette entry as transparent.
The PNG format can do that, or it can have a full alpha channel
(varying partial transparencey for each pixel). Microsoft refuses
to implement alpha-channels for the IMG tag, even though they
have a filter

There are no other bitmap formats recommended for use on the web.

Try looking for Jasc Software's Paint Shop Pro. It used to be very usedful
in the 30 day trial period, but I haven't used it in years.

Am I right in thinking that images with transparent areas (GIFs or
PNGs) should allow clicks to "pass through" to any underlying elements
behind them?
I have had no luck getting this to work in IE or Firefox. I have tried
GIF and PNG with 'binary' transparency and PNG24 with 'alpha'
transparency (obviously the latter won't work in IE without the
AlphaImageLoader trick).
Here is a test page for you to see it not working in action:

Using MakeTransparent one can supposedly turn a color used in a Bitmap to

the transparent color of a Bitmap stored in the Image of a PictureBox and
placed the PictureBox on a Form which has a BackColor of black, it turned
the white pixels of the bitmap image to black, but these black pixels...

Is it possible to set the background of a usercontrol as transparent?
I tried setting the background image of the usercontrol to a transparent

I'm making some controls that aren't rectangular and it won't be pretty if I
end up with a grey rectangle behind each one.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
