Well since I believe this is a prank and could result in a funny program, then use for controls which have been given irregular shapes using some ActiveX control (ShapeIt or something like that) and then put the picture on the form and move it about, it's an excellent idea because it is using forms for what they are designed to do, and it is the way the professionals do it and it is a fairly lightweight method (just remember to set the BorderStype property to 0 and ShowInTaskBar to false =) If memory serves me correctly then Quake was made this way Gee I'm funny (well, that's what my mum told me =) (If this isn't a prank, I will laugh even louder than I am now) (Wouter - don't read that last sentence)
