There's information on transparency as it relates to the PictureBox control
in the archive.

The code to draw a "transparent" bitmap in C# is something like:

Color c = ... // your "transparent" color
ImageAttributes a = new ImageAttributes();
ia.SetColorKey(c, c);
Graphics g = ... // e.g. the PaintEvent's Graphics
g.Clear(Parent.BackColor); // assuming this code is part of a control's

OnPaint method
g.DrawImage(..., a);
