I notice that only the alpha channel changes - that would explain why
they all looked the same here, as I viewed them using a program which
ignores the alpha channel.

Yes, that will be useful.  At the moment I have some issues with alpha
channel blits (waiting on a new dev kit which contains the function
which does this), so the non-alpha one is probably better for the
moment.  It will be useful to have it handy for when I'm able to
modify the code to support it.

The inactive frame needs to be the first one on the strip.

My buttons are 24x24 with a frame.  32x32 pixels fits fairly well but
28x28 might be better.

OK, I'll put some supporting code in for that.

It would be very good to get some button images adopted as the default
across all platforms.  In addition to the above I would need a small
tab close gadget as well (my current one is 16x16 pixels).
