1. Help testing transparentBlt function

------------5E1669A2799F56B

Hi,
In the app I'm writing Win32Lib's transBlt has become a major
bottleneck, so I'm looking for a better (faster) way to do it.
The TransparentBlt function in MSIMG32.DLL seems perfect for the job,
but I'm not totally sure how will this is supported throughout the
various versions of windows.
I've attached a quick test, could anyone who has the time run this and
tell me the result along with any information you can give about your
system (OS version ect). It requires win32lib for a reason I haven't
been able to figure out yet (i don't use any win32lib functions but it just
doesn't work if i don't include it).

I know it won't work on every system, and I'm going to have an
alternate version, but if it doesn't work on the majority of systems
then I need to find another faster method.

Thanks very much to any one who can run it :)
