ContextMenuStrip Icons Distorted

Hi,

I have an imagelist set to 32 bit, for 16x16 icons, and i've imported
icons which are all (i think) 32x32 but VS is only reporting one of
them with "physical dimensions: 32x32"

All of the icons are distorted (through height and width reduction).

What can i do about this?
Thanks

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

You can purchase or download a free icon editor that can add new icon formats to an existing file with algorithms to preserve the
appearance of the icon while scaling.

I use a program that I really like, free when I downloaded it, which can scale a 48 x 48 icon down to smaller formats preserving the
appearance. Sometimes manual touch-ups are required but the editor is nice and easy to use.
