Maybe I don't get you but...

if this is possible, what else do you happen to have in mind?

anyway, maybe you can use a TImageList (or whatever it's called), 
populate at design-time with your images; then access the "resource" 
from the list using its index.
(this is usually what I do if I need images in my projects, when they 
are the same size. If they are not, I just fill an array/named-list and 
access it via const-names; I use config-files as well to populate the 
images, so that a user can easily redefine his images; this is a very 
little payload, but provides you great flexibility with once-written code)

Just my 2c for it.

Cheers, A.
