Today's applications require the use of graphics. Not only do these images make an app easier to use, to learn and to master, they sure beat the alternative of plain ol' text. Here we offer 40 Visual Basic downloads from sister site VBCode.com that help developers create and manage the images they use to enhance their applications. Recent additions include a plethora of Visual Basic media players and a left to right gradient form.
