Adding a picture box behind a Transparent Panel?

You could try a different approach: don't use a Panel and use a single PictureBox this way you draw everything in that PictureBox . Thus, you use PictureBox's MouseDown event handler to calculate the (virtual) cell the user has clicked (you need to perform a simple division) and then you draw the chip on the PictureBox . If you want to show the chip falling, you'd need to save a copy of the current Bitmap (the Image property of the PictureBox ) and draw the chip on different y coordinates (from 0 to its final position on the grid), this would be just like the double-buffer technique.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
