I read The Visual Studio tutorial, (and the ActiveX) and for the moment I m modifying GoogleDesktopDisplaySample1 given with the API, to try to understand...

BUT, there is only explaination to show how to load icons in the window...

i need to load a picture that would be the size of the window, and i can't find neither the command to use if it is not the same, nor the layout options (the icons i can create are always placed on the right :( )

I m sorry, that s easy information, but I began to work on GD only yesterday and that s a hudge system to try to understand ...

if someone has a bit of time to give me useful tips...

thanks for all, and sorry for the mistakes
