is it possible to display a truecolour image on an ImageGadget using a seperate or embedded grayscale alpha channel to deal with the transparency within the image?

or rather,

Is there anyway of displaying images using transparenies for the reason of if the user has changed his default windows colour?

I don't think you can with the Image library. I know you can if you
use icons with transparency (I've done it with vis2pure), but icons are
so small. :)

i think is possible using an api image list, it can create the masked image from a bitmap an use it as an icon.
