In design time, select the label, use Ctrl+X to cut it out, select the picturebox, use Ctrl-V to paste it. Voilá.
Indeedy.
And the reason is that labels and other windowless controls cannot be z-ordered in front of windowed controls.
Just thought you'd be interested in that little snippet of useless (?) information.
