Just adding a little back to this community that has given me so much over the years. This is a simple graphics algorithm for displaying a circular-like percentage bar, in a similar-same style as the World of Warcraft (WoW) CD Cooldown Timers look and react. There is a simple call to the win32 gdi API Polygon function, then an unoptimized example of masking to create the CD graphic into a picturebox with timers for the countdown. I hope this helps someone and that others will share their VB6 works to keep the good old IDE alive, and happy coding! - JC
