****************************** Author: Ben Dowse Date: 19 March 1998 ****************************** Note from Burt Abreu Visual Basic Explorer http://www.VBExplorer.com habreu@bellsouth.net I found this sample on a newsgroup and thought you might find it interesting. Some possible uses for this might include animation that 'walks' off the form or maybe allow you to create custom 'splash screens' with a graphic of any shape. If you do something interesting with this please send me a copy. Thanks. **************************************************** SPECIAL NOTES ON THIS CUSTOM 'FLOATING' ODD WINDOW EXAMPLE ========================================================== T'was hard doing this. Took me a few hours. I got to know a few things from this and perhaps you'll too. I hope you enjoy this control. perhaps we could get a bill gates picture and use him as well. Huh! Double-Click on the control and then drag him around. Think of all the possibilities you could have, just by studying this extraordinary code. You'll have a fun time looking at all the special effects. Yeah! Everybody have a good time and I hope you like this control. Adapt to suit your own special needs.
