I don't have an example for this ... but you should do the following :
- create your customized checkbox which has the behaviour and the design as you want
- tell the DatGridview to use this control in the specified column

I think, with a little search in the Internet you will find articles which guide you in the right way ...

By searching something complete different I found something at this location :
www.codemag.com/article/0707061

It shows how to create a custom ColumnType for the DataGridView.
