Customize your menu with images.
Just create a menu with the VB Menu editor. Add some PictureBoxes to your form and assign to the CMenu class.
This class uses the whole region of the main-menu not only the regions of the items. So, if the window width changes, the background image of the main-menu also does.
The screenshot shows where PictureBoxes are applied.
UPDATE:
Now using a better method for subclassing. A MsgBox blocked the WM_DRAWITEM message when running in the IDE and as long as the msgbox was on top, the menubar was grey. This doesn't happen in the new version.
