I Found this amazing problem while working with the Panel control on a winform.
What i did as the following:
1. Added a Panel Control.
2. Configure the backcolor property (to blue).
3. Configure the BackgroundImage property to a gif image (one that comes with the wizards of microsoft - name: CSCLS.gif).

What I got was that the image got all smeared up, and it looked like there is a memory lick or something like that. This is only occures with gif images and when setting both: BackColor and BackgroundImage of the Panel.

I even tried doing it via code, but when the form is loading, all i get is a smeared image and sometimes i get as a picture the other windows opened in the back :).

Has anybody else encoutared this problem? Please try it yourself, I tried it on another computer and got the same results.


Please Helppppppppppppppp,
Thanks in advance,
Shlomy
