But if you don't want to use 3rd party add ins, use the FCL directly. It 
supports transparency, smooth resize etc etc. Actually it supports more 
than you would think at the first glance :)

The LCL graphic classes/methods are very OS-specific. The FCL graphic 
classes/methods are OS-independent.

I'd love to have full transparency support in LCL TBitmap/TCanvas as 
well but it all depends on the underlying OS. If you can fix it (at 
least for some OS/WS), feel free to post a patch.
