How to display logo or picture while loading form?

Hi EveryBody,

Can anyone tell how do I display/show logo or picture when loading a form, NOT ON THE FORM, and it disappears after loading is complete.

The easiest way that I can think of off the top of my head would be to create another form that would act as a "splash screen" type of thing. If you set the border style to none and set the back color to the same as the transparency key, then you could throw on a PictureBox with your logo image. You'd have to do a bit of coding for positioning it in a way to appear like it's over your focus form, but that could work for you.

Thanks Sir for this idea, I did not think of it!

increase opacity of the splash form as it loads and then decrease it,

And then launch the main form from splash form
