(About the author)
 
     Two custom button user controls-- FadeButton and TextButton. The first, Fadebutton, is a simple button base designed for custom GUI implementations. I originally wrote it to replace the clumsy PictureBox-type work around for creating custom image-skinned buttons, but added fading rollover and transparency effects as well. My second control, the TextButton, works similarly as the FadeButton (rollover fading effects and all), but instead relies upon text for the button's face. Both should serve as real help for custom GUI projects, and address the peculiar dearth of user control examples in .Net on PSC. Thanks, and remember to vote!

@Timo: Looks good, unfortunately I only have C# .Net so I can't run it. Thanks for the ref though. :)
