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.

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

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.

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.
