Can the XP Background Texture be shown when using a PictureBox in the tab?

I love your site, I am so glad it came back. You have some awesome code on vbaccelerator.

I have a question about your tab control, any ideas how to avoid this visual problem I am having in XP? Basically the tab control in XP gets painted with that nice XP fade, but the picture box I place on the tab (with my controls in it) does not receive that nice fade.

Obviously I could not use a picture box, but that makes it much harder to organize my controls.
