I am just starting up in visual basic after failing at python last year and seem to be having trouble with having a GUI and a sort of WYSIWYG type editor. I use picture boxes as everything mainly because I am more a Graphic Designer and enjoy drawing and customizing. Back on point I use Picture boxes as buttons on top of a docked picture box as a background, and the transparency key causes the bg of button picture box to show through to the desktop.
This is the bane of my existence at this moment because this prevents me from creating a visually stunning interface.

that is my problem and I am looking forward to any solutions you all may have.

also any hints as to make the picture box movable without the form border style being there would be helpful.

thanks in advance

Edit: all pics are png-24 with transparency non-interlaced
