I tried this and got an 'ExceptionException Unknown/Unsupported PCX
image type'. The resource contains a PNG image.

  lRes := TLazarusResourceStream.Create('sombra_top_horiz', 'PNG');
  try
    lRes.Position:= 0;
    FMyTBGRABitmap.LoadFromStream(lRes);
  finally
    lRes.Free;
  end; 

Any workaround?
