Icons in Picture Controls

I have an icon file (*.ico) that contains a 32 by 32 and a 16 by 16 icon. I want to display the 32 by 32 in a picture control but Jade always uses the 16 by 16. Does anyone know how to get Jade to display the 32 by 32 icon without creating a new picture file that just contains the 32 by 32 icon?

The only thing I can think of it to not use a .ico file. Make a .png
file instead (although there is probably a good reason why you are
using .ico files).

The only other way is to work out the format of a .ico file and read
it as a binary file - you should be able to extract out the 32x32
portion of it. Are there not any windows API calls for doing that?
