How to store Big images

[sggaunt]

I intend to improve the look of some of my apps by overlaying bitmap images on the forms and Options tabs, these can be biggish.
But I can use the same image several times on say a tabbed page (without the tabs).
Sticking the image (500 * 300 pixels and about 333K) for the tabs into an image list dosent seem to be a good idea (hangs the compiler).
Two questions
What is the recomended way of storeing and retriving large images for this type of use?.
Putting an image object on a tabbed page seems to leave a gray border even if it is set to align client is there any way around this?
