Hi, MS.NET ImageList creates handle when you first time retrieve or draw any of it's images. Until that is stores the original image object, after handle creation it uses a native ImageList. It applies size and color depth when handle is created. (This is documented in ImageList.cs.)
After handle is created modifying ColorDepth or ImageSize results in handle recreation and the loss of all images. As we don't create any handle at all I decided to create it when images are added and apply size and colordepth when handle is created in other words when they are added. Patches r51171 and r51889 are not compatible with MS.NET behaviour as they don't clear images after handle was created so these modifications should not be preserved. I belive that caching the images until using them is a bad idea as we don't use any native image list and doing time consuming operations at initializaion is better as if you create an ImageList you do it because you want to access the images. If you think caching before handle creation behaviour is important after considering the above things please let me know and I will implement that behaviour.
