Clipping an Image

You would create a new Bitmap of the desired size, create a Graphics object from it using Graphics.FromImage, then call Graphics.DrawImage to draw the old Image onto the new one in the appropriate position.
Sir i am new to GDI kind of stuff...could you just give me some Glimpse of the code...Here wat i am trying is to clip a background image and set as the background image for a list view to make it look like its transperant...
How about you have a go, step by step? What's the first step?

Once you've done that you can move onto the next step.
This is how you attack problems: break them into smaller problems and attack each one separately. When you've solved them all you have inherently solved the original problem. When someone gives you keywords, e.g. Bitmap and Graphics.FromImage, instead of just assuming that it's too hard, use those keywords to research for yourself. If you can't find what you need or you don't know how to use it when you find it, that's OK but the fact that that might happen is not a reason not to try.
Can you do that? If not, go to the documentation for the Bitmap class and see how to create one of a specific size.
