Hay Feex....

Can you explain exactly what you are trying to do - i'm a bit confused by 
what you are trying to achieve as your end goal.  I've messed on loads with 
icons and other images under windows and then winXP - there are some key 
issues with some of the api's and in my personal opinion, the way builder 
creates its resources.

Perhaps i can provide some details if you can clarify what you are trying to 
do - i might be totally braking up the wrong tree though.
