How can I have a dll for icons? Like say shell32.dll is?

Ok, I've searched but I'm still having some problems...
Now say I have my dll, I've added the resources to it and I've set the resource file so that it's like:
IDB_TESTBMP BITMAP "test.bmp"
test.bmp has been added to the file, and IDB_TESTBMP is defined as 5000.
Now, how can I load the image from another file?
I tried LoadLibrary and then LoadImage but I couldn't get it working..
Doh, I forgot to include the resource header into the resource file.. It works now! :)
did you know that dll's can also be used to make custom desktop icons?
Why, no, I didn't! That is just amazing. Thank you!
