title: .NET Compact Framework 3.5 animated transparent wait cursor
body: <p>I would like to display a "wait cursor" to the user when they have to wait for something to load.  The cursor should be an animated series of bitmaps.</p>
  
  <p>I can use a UserControl that I can add to a form, but the UserControl is not itself transparent.</p>
  
  <p>I took the code sample available here (<a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=33817CE0-B5E9-4B8E-916B-E6A381E03789&amp;displaylang=en" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=33817CE0-B5E9-4B8E-916B-E6A381E03789&amp;displaylang=en</a>).  While it works, I want to be able to decouple the animation from the form in a separate object.  When I do that, it works for the sample app but not for my actual app.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions?  This is in .NET CF 3.5</p>
