I tried posting to the wxpython-users list but I'm not sure it worked nobody 
replied anyway.
Here's my test script:

import wx

class Frame(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self):
wx.Frame.__init__(self, None, -1, "Shaped Window",
style =
wx.FRAME_SHAPED
| wx.SIMPLE_BORDER
| wx.FRAME_NO_TASKBAR
| wx.STAY_ON_TOP
)
self.hasShape = False
self.delta = (0,0)

self.Bind(wx.EVT_PAINT, self.OnPaint)
self.Bind(wx.EVT_MOTION, self.OnMouseMove)

self.bkground = wx.Bitmap("/home/adam/bkgrnd.gif", wx.BITMAP_TYPE_GIF)
w, h = self.bkground.GetWidth(), self.bkground.GetHeight()
self.SetClientSize((w, h))
self.Bind(wx.EVT_WINDOW_CREATE, self.SetWindowShape)
panel = Panel(self, w, h)
panel.Show()
dc = wx.ClientDC(self)
dc.DrawBitmap(self.bkground, 0,0, True)

def SetWindowShape(self, evt):
# Use the bitmap's mask to determine the region
r = wx.RegionFromBitmap(self.bkground)
self.hasShape = self.SetShape(r)

def OnPaint(self, event):
dc = wx.PaintDC(self)
dc.DrawBitmap(self.bkground, 0,0, True)

def OnMouseMove(self, evt):
if evt.Dragging() and evt.LeftIsDown():
x, y = self.ClientToScreen(evt.GetPosition())
fp = (x - self.delta[0], y - self.delta[1])
self.Move(fp)

class Panel(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent, width, height):
wx.Panel.__init__(self, parent, -1, size=(width, height))

button = wx.Button(self, -1, "hello")
button.SetSize(button.GetBestSize())
self.SetSize((width, height))
#print dir(self)

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = wx.PySimpleApp()
frame = Frame()
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()

Thanks.
Adam.
