I have an addin that creates a custom commandbar/toolbar for running macros. I have custom icons for each of them, unfortunately, they look horrible once they are loaded into the toolbar. The icons are saved in a worksheet names Icons. When the addin is loaded, the addin goes

Code:
.IsAddin = False

I use...

Code:
With .Controls.Add(type :=msoControlButton)
Sheets("Icons").Shapes("Picture 1").Copy
.Pasteface

And it takes in the picture 1 and puts it in the toolbar fine, BUT the colors are off and it doesn't look the same as the actual picture.

I've even gone as far as to use the icon editor in Excel, clean it up so that it looks like I want, Copy Button Image, Paste it back into the Icon worksheet and try to load the cleaned up version. But, they still look bad.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
