title: How to create a quality splash screen odd shaped like VS 2010?
body: <p>I've seen some neat splash screens like VS 2010, Adobe products, etc.  I know in VS.NET you can set a transparency color, etc. but I have never been able to make one look nice that didn't have some type of jagged edges or color issues on the edges.  For example, I could create a black circle with magenta as the transparent color and I've tried various aliasing options in Adobe PhotoShop CS4.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone steer me or provide an example of how to make a nice one like we see on VS 2010's startup?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
