I don't think not.

The FormSkin is actually a "None" BorderStyleType. If you change it's BorderStyle, you will see the original buttons up top.

Yup it does. It's clearly made with pictures. And it's not perfectly sync.

Here's the original link to the project: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/249 ... -in-VB-Net

If I read the topic correctly, this is not an actual form, but more of a custom control that's added to the form instead of using the form itself.

Yup that's the one. The Form is not actually a real form. It's made only with pictures. Check the Resources file.
