need a better solution to use images in application

[Dayne]

Hi Everyone!

Currently, I am writing an application that uses a lot of bitmaps. I would
load a image by specifying "a path" on my hard drive. I would however like a
better solution --- don't like the fact that the images are exposed so
publicly. Any ideas?

Embed the images in your executable (set the build type to "Embedded
Resource" and either use ResourceManageer or
Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream to load them.

Works nice, but limited to 256x256 as far I have seen.
