Hey, I need to know how to make a textbox with a background image or a transparent one.

C# recommended but vb .net is okay.

That's not possible I'm afraid.

I've seen translucent textboxes though, so it must be somewhat possible.

I found something, that might help you.

Already went to that, and it's from 2003 and doesn't work anymore :/

Ah, well then have you tried asking on HF as well?
There are a lot of experienced members there.
For an instance, ask Nathan7... He is good at modifications.

I can't get on HF.. can you ask for me?

( I can't access any webpage with the word "hack", not even imagesHACK)

Will ask a few members that I have on MSN if they know how to do it.

You can't make a textbox transparent unless you do visible = false.
You can also make it appear as transparent by having no border on the textbox and make it the same colour as your background.
You can however make labels transparent and have background images.

My background is complex and I can't do an image background.
Anybody have somewhat a solution?
