minalth Variable levels of transparency is know as alpha transparency . There are 3 ways (that I know of) to achieve this is VB:

1.) Use the AlphaBlend API :

Note: Does not work on WinNT or Win95

2.) Use OnErrOr's GDI+ TypeLib:

3.) Use DMA (Direct Memory Access) to do pixel by pixel manipulation:
