Dorian,
when working on adblock-control button set I found that it would be very useful if KM will learn to handle ico-files which contain different-sized images.

For example: I've created icon set for adblock-controls by JamesD with ico-files containing 3 sizes of every icon (16, 24, 32).
When it's loaded info default skin with '0'-toolbarsize - KM loads right image from ico file (16x16). But when I set toolbar size to 24 or 32 - it just stretches small icon to fit the KM pref value. Not good.

Moreover, if KM will handle multisize ico-files - then we won't need multiple files like 'mainbar.png' and 'mainbar16.png' (they will be replaced by one ico-file).

And more - skin.cfg files will get less complex then. For now it drives me crazy to just understand it's syntax - not even trying to change something :O

Is it possible to do such a change in toolbar k-plugin?

The best solution that I have found is to use a 32x32 png file. That has compression and KM will resize down to 16, 24, or another size. Making all the images for one macro fit onto one panorama png also saves a lot of disk space. Attached is my image for the latest adblock control.

I've tried this way and found KM-resampling to be inaccurate so I've prepared ico-file with multiple sizes.
