Updated with project files for VC++ 2005. I had to rebuild a PC anyway so I thought I'd try out the free VC++ 2005 Express, which works just fine, I recommend it for anyone who wants to do C++ work without the installing whole Visual Studio universe.
Earlier I said that the free VC++ didn't have a resource compiler, but that's wrong, all it's missing is a resource editor, which for this application you would never use anyway. You need to hand-write a resource.h and <projectname>.rc file, but it's very straightforward (faster than adding resources using the resource editor), and the compiler will embed the images properly for you (you can look at the example project to see how it's done).
