Is it possible to overlay an image on a window like a skin? I've been
looking through the specs and I can't seem to find any sort of
Background Image property. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.
 
John,

You may need to be a bit more specific - are you just looking to set a
background image on your window (i.e. behind your controls), or are you
looking to literally drape an image over the entire window (as some sort of
semi-transparent overlay)?

If the former, check out the BackgroundBrush property. If the latter, you'd
probably need to put it into the window's adorner layer.

HTH,
-Alex

Behind the control, so I'll look at that.
