Multiple forms+Icons

Question

I am new to programming in Visual Basic .Net and I am looking to create my first real program. The program will contain a telnet and Ftp portion that I want users to be able to start by clicking on an icon on the main form. I then want that form to run in the main form and still allow the user to start the another form by minimizing the current form. If anyone has worked with Photoshop, I want to basically allow two or more forms to run at the same time (just like you can have to photo projects open at the same time) and allow them to be started by click an icon on the main form. The biggest problem I have is being able to create Icons that appear on a form similar to the picture shown below. I have various icons that I can use in .ico and .png format. I also need the forms to be able to be minimized and still appear on the main form so it can be maximized later if needed. Hopefully I have included all the information needed. Thanks *******P.S.********* I found the answer to my post. I need to use MDI forms to work with multiple forms and i over looked the fact that I can use image tool and creat my icons that way. If there is a better way to close a post please let me know. Thanks
