I know this really doesn't have much to do with the web but you all are so great at answering my questions I felt this was definatly the place to ask.

I have a VB form where I have a image box that pulls pictures from a database and displays them depending on what selection the user is on. The thing is I want to put a title that overlaps this image and have the area around the words be transparent.

The title is an image as well (It just shows up about 50% of the time depending on the selection). I have looked around and found you can't have this type of transparency with another imagebox. So I went on to look at this GDI thing. Well after some time of figureing that out (making the image with a black background and using the transparency black) I found that the object is below everything. So now instead of my Title image floating on top of the imagebox it sits underneith and can't be seen (no good).

I know it sounds confusing but here is the paint part of the code:

Private Sub frmMyForm_Paint(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Paint
        Dim imgBmp As New Bitmap(imgLoc)
        imgBmp.MakeTransparent(Color.White)
        e.Graphics.DrawImage(New Bitmap(imgBmp), 20, 20)
    End Sub

imgLoc is the name of the image "simultaneous.bmp"

Thanks for any help
