Changing the form look? - ProspectDotNet - 10-19-2009

I would like to know how to change the icon in the form title bar. Also, is there a way to remove the title bar and just make the minimize maximize and close buttons appear on the form?

Didn't read second request properly, try this:

Then create minimize, exit and maximize buttons.

You can also remove the border altogether, and use some cleaver graphics work and PictureBox commands.

Erm. That's what I was talking about pretty much. I guess I'll find out if the links Extasey posted involve that.
