Most of you should be common with this post as this is 3. time i post it :/
But this time i have done a loot, i sweer!
I will also give you a tutorial on how to use the controls and the forms!

New things in this version:
* New Form (BlackCapForm2)
- The system buttons can be fully removed, not only disabled (Set visible to false)
- Extra text (Under the form tittle) (If the value of this is empty, the tittle will apear normal)
- The FormBorderStyle don't have to stay at None, if changed your form will do some changes
- Automaticly sets the padding
- Both old and new form supports icons

* New Button (BcButton)
- Got all its colors in propertyes, that means that you can change the way it looks
- Have a glow animation at mouse hover

* BcDigitalDisplay
- Now also supports "-" chars

* GdiControls, CustomForm
- The forms is no longer just a skinned ContainerControl you put over your orginal form, it's a skinned form. This both runs a loot
faster, and is easyer to use.
- Added Visible property in the GdiControls Class, if sat to false the CustomForm will not draw it or raise its events
- Added opening and closing animations to the CustomForm class (Fading in and out and shrink/grow into/from center)

Fixed things:
* Source code
- Renamed the controls and gave them english names
- Think i translated all public propertyes and events to english, if not, please tell me! Also tell me about wrong words and typos if any
- Removed the "Farger" class and declares pigments in each control instead
- Added a function to fix opasity in the GdiMethods class

* Old Form (BlackCapForm1)
- Fixed systembuttons disabled color
- Fixed that the maximize button still worked while disabled

* GroupBox
- Fixed the laggs while resizing it

Removed:
- CalculatorNumericUpDown (Some honest guy told me he hated it..) (Will propertly fix it later Smile )
