Hi Cindy,

You can "steal" bitmaps from other standard programs by doing a screen
capture while you have them loaded, and then pasting the captured
graphics into a graphics editor such as Adobe photoshop. You need to
be careful about the size and bit depth of the picture that you save,
and I think the transparancy color is set by the colour of the bottom
left pixel in the image, but those are details you can figure out with
a bit of digging. I've added lots of bitmap buttons to my programs
this way.
