Extended Multi Size Multi Color Toolbar!

This package differ from other package from the point of view that it support small or large icon. Text or no text and 16 or 256 colors. You can use icon or bitmap to create the toolbar.

It is using the explorer toolbar, so you need at least explorer 3. It's easy and nice to use.

This is a sample on how to use it. For further information, take a look at the sample application zip files.

        return -1;      // fail to create
    }
