What .NET framework are you using? Have you considered using the AJAX RoundedCorners Extender?

If you can use the AJAX extensions, then that would be preferable. Other than that, currently the only way to have round corners is to use images.

I'm just reading a book that contains a wealth of sources of information for this. I'd really recommend the book - it's got all sorts of great theory that most web developers never get exposed to, like color theory and psychology of color, creating color themes, the theory of layout etc. Anyway, the chapter I just read had a section about rounded corners, I'll give you the coles notes version:

Check out:
"Creating Custom Corners & Borders" by Soren Madsen (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/customcorners/)
"Thrashbox" by Ryan Thrash (http://www.vertexwerks.com/tests/sidebox/)
"Nifty Corners" by Alessandro Fulciniti (http://www.html.it/articoli/nifty/)
"Spiffy Corners" by Greg Johnson (http://www.spiffycorners.com/)

I haven't checked any of them out yet, but I'm sure at least one of them should point you in the right direction.

Great references!

I use "A List Apart" quite a bit while I'm designing.

Thanks for the rest of them Balabaster.

I'm going to check out all of them. :)

I forgot to mention the name of the book I so heartily recommended:

The book is called "The Principles of Beautiful Web Design" by Jason Beaird. Published by SitePoint, ISBN 978-0-9758419-6-9.
