They are actually drawing on their own window, but their window is in the
shape of the cat or dog. They do this using SetWindowRgn.

on
the desktop?

You can draw on the desktop like this:

   CDC DC;
   DC.CreateDC("DISPLAY",NULL,NULL,NULL);
   DC.DrawText(....);

But I wouldn't recommend it.

Ba aware that stackoverflow.com is a beginners forum, who know nothing
to Win32 programming...

Yes, most of "answers" on stackoverflow are just laughable.
Most of the time, it's "you can't do it", it's impossible", for usual
tasks
like blocking Ctrl-Alt-Del, loading an animated gif or reading remote
listview items !!!
I think the average age there is about 15 years old...

Sorry I am just a novice
but can you please tell me what needs to be done If I want to draw on
Desktop.
I can get the CWnd* using GetDesktopWindow(). After that How I can
Hook that window to get the WM_PAINT message ?

thanks
