You could add your bitmap to your project, change its property to
embeded resource, and then in code:
Image img = new Bitmap(this.GetType(), "test.bmp");

Subject: [DOTNET] Load an image from a resource file
I've searched wherever I can, and I can't find a sample or any clear
directions on how to achieve this.
I have an assembly which contains some base forms from which all others
are inherited. In my application (which inherits these forms) I would
like to provide a resource which the base forms assembly accesses
directly and loads the appropriate image (predefined names in the
resource file). I've looked at the help on .resources files etc, but am
lost - am struggling to even create a .resources file with images in it
- the .resx editor in VS seems to only allow plain text.
Any help or samples would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Dino
