Question

For a WPF application which will need 10 - 20 small icons and images for illustrative purposes, is storing these in the assembly as embedded resources the right way to go?

Answer 1

The following worked and the images to be set is resources in properties:

    var bitmapSource = Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHBitmap(MyProject.Properties.Resources.myImage.GetHbitmap(),
                                      IntPtr.Zero,
                                      Int32Rect.Empty,
                                      BitmapSizeOptions.FromEmptyOptions());
    MyButton.Background = new ImageBrush(bitmapSource);
img_username.Source = bitmapSource;
