How about Toolbar?
You have not put it absolutely at the top, it can be set to AlignNone
(something like that), and with flat button style, it is like Outlook
Express 6 toolbar, with dynamic position you can drag the whole toolbar to
any position you want, and there is whole lot properties of toolbar you can
customize of.
Toolbar, of course, use your existing ImageList control.
