.NET Image Re-coloring: .NET provides support for recoloring your bitmaps on the fly or modifying a bitmap in memory to have different colors each time it's drawn. This support forms the core for drawing transparent images. Recolor your images @ http://www.sellsbrothers.com/writing/DotNetImageReColoring.htm
