Dynamic Resizable Skins Demo Version 1.2

By now we all know how to create skinnable forms based on bitmaps. But all those demos share one problem - The form is static and can't be resized (a fine example of a resizable window is the Playlist window in Winamp).

This demo shows you how to combine transparency support AND resizability. Check it out.

VERSION UPGRADES 06/09/01 and 03/22/2001: Features added include

• Skinnable Minimize/Exit buttons, which are automatically re-positioned when the form is resized.
• An invisible wrapper form that handles minimize/restore from the taskbar.
• Support for loading region (transparency) data from a cache file instead of re-computing it each time, resulting in a 50% faster load time.
