For Visual Basic 6 Programmers

When you have to draw a picture with code, there's only one answer: GDI+
Here's a quick tutorial that is designed to get right to the heart of how to ACTUALLY USE IT!

When I first encountered GDI+, I had a hard time with it. The concepts that are used in GDI+ just aren't familiar to Visual Basic programmers. So here's a "kick start" into the world of the Graphical Device Interface ... Plus. This is no detailed description of all the events, objects, and properties. This short tutorial shows you how to add GDI+ programming to your Visual Basic .NET code!
Give it a try!

Rather disappointing, I was expecting an article not a list of links.

Your search landed you on a blog that is currently four years old and which originally pointed to a VB 6 article written for a different and now obsolete site interface. The article you hoped to find was rewritten for .NET and the link on the old blog was redirected to a general category.

Try this instead …
