Something not quite right with alignment. Maybe its dNavigation.dll that threw them off. I haven't played with them since I used Resource Hacker to extract them.

I haven't had time yet to dig too deeply but one thing I did notice was that when I used the graphics for the pushbutons from dNavigation.dll the two arrows didn't quite line up.  When you use the individual .png files they line up exactly.
