What you need to do is trap the WM_PAINT message for the dialog box, then
allow Windows to paint all the other controls, then paint your bitmap on
your special control.  There is an example of this in Petzold, but I don't 
have it here, so I can't look it up.

Look in the index under "dialog boxes, painting" or something.  If you don't
have it, I can look up some code for you.

(You certainly don't need any TIMER messages!)
