I've been reading all the recent posts about fading in/out 
bitmaps in a picturebox. I have written a simple routine 
that does this, and best of all, it does not require screwing
around with palettes and DIBs.  

It works with any kind of graphics file that can be loaded 
into a picturebox and can also create transparent fadeins/fadeouts.  
If you don't want to do a transparent fadein, then just copy the 
background  and picbox into memory and blt the two into the 
destination picbox.  

To fade-out,  just change the blt source to the background on the 
blt near the end.
