VB6: picturebox + transparency

[Novecento]

Hey folks!

I recently had a strange problem using Visual Basic 6.
I want some pictureboxes to be like layers in Photoshop.
So I changed the properties of my PictureBox like this:

Picture1.FillStyle = 1 ' 1 = transparency

When Fillstyle = 1 FillColor will be ignored, but still there's BackColor which I can not set to transparent.

So what do I have to do, in order to have my pictureboxes transparent?
