Toolbar Image Help

I've been trying to get a standard toolbar to play nice with some nice icons
that I have. When I put them on a button or anything they look perfect, but
through an imagelist and on a toolbar they all have this blue aura around
them. I assume that is from the transparency, but I don't understand why
almost any other control displays them properly.. There really is no
replacement for the toolbar (without paying!), so I hope someone can tell me
how to get these icons to behave! I have them in ICO and PNG format, both
product the same "dirty edge" effect when placed on a toolbar button...

If anyone has any suggestions for a low cost commercial toolbar control, I'm
not opposed to buying something to make this look nice..

Thanks!

Hi Mitchell,

I reviewed the thread and find that there is a similar issue in the
newsgroup below.Now a community has replied to you, you may go and take a
look.
Subject: Toolbar Images with "Dirty Edges"
Newsgroups: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Also based on my further research, there is a known issue that display a
image from the imagelist when we add them into imagelist in designtime.
So far the workaround is to add the image in the runtime.

Have you tried Mick's suggestion in that suggestion?
If you still have any concern, please feel free to post here.
