.gif, .tiff. and .icon
What program would I use to draw a 32 bitmap?
This drawing will be loaded into a pictureBox. Is this the correct control
for these image types?

Only stable success I have had with transparent background images in picture boxes
was with either proper 32 bit "XP Style" icons (other icons don't work), or .png
format images created in PhotoShop with a transparent background. With the .png
images, they only seem to work properly when loaded into a picture box from a
resource at runtime. In Design, there is usually no transparency (which may change
with SP1) and usually no transparency at runtime if loaded in Design.
