BMP or ICO files?  If ICO are they using transparent as the color, or if BMP they may need styles set for what colors are transparent...perhaps even using a certain color with some styles for highlight/shadow/face colors, etc.

Hi Elias,

There is no masked color setting in FF toolbar. If there is then the mask color you need is white - to make any dots that is white in your image to appear transparent.

I make all my icons as ico files with an icon maker software. The surrounding area are made transparent. This way, I do not need the mask color setting and I can use them anywhere (toolbar, tabcontrol, etc) without them appearing as squares.
