Your ImageList control does not have any icons in it.

Your ImageList control does not have any icons in it.

Or, the ListView's .Icons / .SmallIcons property isn't set to your image list.

Edit: Tag and Key fields are not required, but you may use them if you find it convenient.

As Stealth said,

ListView1.Icons = ImageList1
or
ListView1.SmallIcons = ImageList1

Egad! Rename it from ImageList1! How the hell are you supposed to know what ImageList1 does as opposed to ImageList2 when you have 10 Image List objects?!? Don't document code; let your code document itself!!!

ok I have decided to look at my imagelist and completly remove and add again, this will result in the lost of my icons. Does anyone know where I can find the basic icons? (starx, star, jsr, jsrx, war2, war3, etc.)I dont need ladder and normal game stat icons. thx!

And then, once you've readded all of the icons, will you not again have the some problem of initializing your imagelist object?

Right click your channel list.
Goto properties.
Vlivk the Icons tab
Set the "Small" Setting to your image list.
Hit apply.
Have fun it *should* work If not tell us so.
Also you are in need of images?
A few i've collected
Have fun.

Not necessary! Extract the individual icons from the bni at runtime, load them into the imagelist at runtime with LoadPicture(), but keep the extracted icons as default images for when bncs does not provide you an icon you had previously (this might never happen, but design for robustness).
