Image Resource

Hi,
I have a picture box control in my form and I have 2 .GIF (animated GIF
image). And I want to display those GIF image in my picture-box (at first, I
want the control to show the first image and a few seconds later, I want the
control to present the second image).
The following are some ways I have try to deal with this task:
- Insert two picture-box control into my form and each control shows only
one image; and then, I will toggle the Visible property of them.
This is not a good solution if I want to display 10 or 100 images
- I make use of ImageList to keep my images. Through it's a very good idea,
my animated GIF image stop animating. It's become static image.
- Using the Image.FromFile to load image. But I don't want to reveal the
images to the user so that they can open,edit them and change my
application.

Is there better solution ?

I have used Visual C++. Using images in C++ is very easy: just insert them
into the resource file and display them with. Is there any easy way to use
resource in C# ?

Thanks

I am interested in hearing how other people have handled sharing resources in multiple projects (for example, a save icon). We have a product that has many forms within many projects. Many of these forms have a save button with an icon (along with other common buttons and icons). At this point, we've added the icon to each project. Unfortunately, if we want to change the icon, we now have to go to every project and change it. It would...
