you can display a picturebox with a picture in it, thats not a problem but as for "not on the form" well not quite, not unless you want to launch an external picture viewer
anything you wish to display to the user - the form is used as a basis/body of it

You can probably get the same effect by launching another form,
(borderless), with a background image set to stretch.
To close the borderless form. Search this forum for 'borderless'
Of course if you just want to leave it there. It will close when form1
closes.

was going to post exactly that Tall Dude after some grub! Beat me to it ;-)
Tall Dude is correct, you can have the illusion its just a picturebox by setting the form properties appropriately
