timer with picturebox

i want to change image in picturebox every 20 sec what can i do ? use backgroundworker or timer ?

Since the load time of the image will (should) be very fast, especially compared to the wait time of 20 seconds, a System.Windows.Forms.Timer should work well and be easy to use.

The BackgroundWorker is geared for doing activity in the background is going to consume a lot of time. When a task is very fast, such as loading an image, the user is not going to be able to tell that it is not really running in the background with the Timer.
