Card Game && Player Hand

Hi.

I'm trying to design a card game and need to show the user its own hand. I first tried using PictureBoxes, but the problem is with transperency (see image at the end). Then I used Me.CreateGraphics() to draw the image directly into the form, but besides being much more dificult to handle, I need to have some events so that I know when the mouse is over the Image, when the user has Clicked the image and so on.

What do you advice?

Store the locations of the cards on the Form with a Rectangle and then check if the mouse cursor's location (in a MouseMove or MouseDown event) is within the Rectangle of the card.
