32-Bit Icons with an Image control

I'm trying to use an image control to hold an icon which I intend to use
for the system tray. It works fine, except the icon (with a 32-bit color
depth) is converted to 256 colors when I load it into the image control.
Obviously it makes the icon look ugly as hell, and I was wondering if
there's a way around it.

I couldn't find a message-digest newsgroup, so I posted here. I have a C function that converts a string of arbitrary length to a 32-bit hash value. I realize this is overkill but I used OpenSSL's sha1() to convert the string to a SHA-1 160-bit message digest. The question is: how do I use these 160 bits to get my final 32 bits? Should I...

Python seems to be missing a UCS-32 codec, even in wide builds (not that it the build should matter). Is there some deep reason or should I just contribute a patch? If it's just a bug, should I call the codec 'ucs-32' or 'utf-32'? Or both (aliased)? There should be '-le' and '-be' variats, I suppose. Should there be a variant without...

As far as I know floating point variables, that are declared as float follow IEEE format representation (which is 32-bit in size). But chapter1-page no 9 of the book "The C programming language" states that "THE RANGE OF BOTH int AND float DEPENDS ON THE MACHINE YOU ARE USING". Does this mean "float" variables have different sizes on...
