title: Can I create transparent buttons in Visual Studio 2005 with C#
body: <p>I have a user interface that requires placing some round buttons in a C# project with some data behind them. The buttons are System.Windows.Forms.buttons and I have used a GIF image with transparency to create them.  However, the transparent areas aren't transparent.  I've looked for references online but haven't found any suggestions for how to do this properly.  There's some mention of doing it in Visual Studio 2008 but I need to keep this project in 2005. Any help or suggestion is appreciated.</p>
