Cheers, Martijn Hi Ralf,

You can use a Gdk.Pixbuf if you would just like to load an external image (Pixbuf will accept (png, tiff, jpg, gif, xpm, pcx, ico, xpm, xbm)

using Gdk;
myStatusIcon = new StatusIcon(new Gdk.Pixbuf(”/home/martijn/Desktop/images.jpeg”));

I haven’t yet tried to distribute this in an exe file, so I can’t help you there.

Cheers,
Martijn

However, I would like to add my own icon. How would this be accomplished? What format should the icon be in? Can the icon be stored inside the exe file? Thanks for the tutorial.
