hi there, iam still looking for a transparent picture box , that works also
with 2 pictureboxes over each other or working over an panel.
i don't find solution. or is there out another custom control ?

i have tryed it with directly paint in an other picturebox, but the problem
is with restoring the background.
greetings

You could try making your own control inheriting from a panel.
Use GDI+ to paint the pictures.

Here's an example of a transparent textbox. Maybe you could alter the
example for a picturebox:
