GuiBitmapborderBoundsCtrl - An easy to use and simple to make tiled bitmap container

A GuiBitmapBorderBoundsCtrl is a container control that draws itself from a single bitmap. It differs from a GuiBitmapBorder in that it does not need a special BitmapArray, so it is easy to create and modify. In addition, it can draw the sides and interior tiled in addition to stretching, giving it a neater appearance. The corners are not stretched or tiled, so resizing the control still results in correct appearance.
