This is not your average hyperlink control. This is a bumped up hyperlink control that smoothly fades to your mouseover color when your mouse is paused over it, and fades smoothly back to your idlecolor when the mouse leaves the control, WITHOUT A FLICKER! There's also a property where you can have a orange carrot to the left of your caption, and on mouseover the carrot turns into a carrot with a circle. There is also another property that puts a gray, rounded rectangle around your label on mouseover. Theres also ANOTHER property that fades the old caption out and fades the new caption in when you change the control's caption. This control is extremely cool. This can replace big ugly command buttons with a small simple hyperlink control. Vote if you like it!

OK well all know that the webbrowser control can display animated GIFs? But you really dont want to use that because of that ugly scrollbar on the side, or what about the top and left margins? This gets rid of those 3 annoying things. What you are doing in this is typing direct HTML into the webbrowser control, instead of directly pointing it to the image. With this you can set margins or scrollbar visability.

I'm finally updating this submission! I have completely redone all three controls. The command button is more richer, has more of the "feel" of the acutal Windows XP command button. I noticed previously it flickered, not anymore! I'm completely drawing these buttons to the user control, so there is no flicker. I was also using a timer to detect when a mouse entered and exited the control, which was a bad idea. I'm now using a different method. On these controls you can set the ForeColor, BackColor, and Font properties. Responds just like actual Windows XP buttons. This is a major improvement from my last submission. Well anyway, hope you enjoy these, now everybody can take advantage of the appealing Windows XP look. NOTE: In the screenshot, the controls on the left are the cloned ones :-) Can't really tell a difference, can ya?
