I also do not use icons anymore (except for the app icon) I prefer BMPs and GIFs since they're more "manageable". I never could figure out how to put a 16x16 icon on a button when the file had several formats like 16x16, 32x32,48x48 and so on, VFP seems to like the 32x32 format over all the others. So now what I do is to select the icon I want from my "vast collection" :) and convert it to bmp (usually 16x16).
