    Yes, set the form’s TransparencyKey property. Make the BackColor the same value. You need to pick a color that won’t appear anywhere else in the form. Color.Fuchsia is a good choice, it’s a fuchsed-up color.

    This isn’t a good idea for a splash screen. The point of having one is that the user can see it. The linked MSDN article is only appropriate for (some) child controls, not the form.
