Read the ImageSize before applying to the form. Resize the form with the image size. If you can set the ControlBox property of the Form, you can even hide the Close, Maximize and Minimize buttons from the right top corner.

as I understand it you want your form to be invisible? that isn't supported well in winforms and you should consider moving to WPF. however theres this example:

create a splash screen as the writer advices.

I think you have set form properties [BackgroundImageLayout:stretch] or

you have to change image size(width,height) same as form size(width,height)

Put the image on the form directly by setting the following properties:

Form1.BackgroundImage = MyBackgroundImage
Form1.BackgroundImageLayout = Stretch

You need to set the BackgroundImageLayout property to ImageLayout.Stretch, ImageLayout.Zoom or ImageLayout.Tile depending on how you want the image to fill the Form.

So you mean to stretch your image to the window frame? Just dock the picturebox to full form size. There is an option called Dock in parent container. Use that
