A Transparent Textbox

I have tried so hard to find a transparent textbox on the web but all in vain.
so i have tried to create a one..

This a User Control not a Custom Control so it has less functionality that the traditional texbox but i have tried to cover most of the important properties.

here are some pics..

This Control is inherited from UserControl
