GTK+ doesn't use separate pixbufs for those type of icons, but generates them on the fly with gdk_pixbuf_saturate_and_pixelate(). new_pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_copy (original); gdk_pixbuf_saturate_and_pixelate(original, new_pixbuf, 0.8, TRUE); And then set "new_pixbuf" as the image for the status icon. This will be a bit convoluted in the actual code as you're using icon names, and we'd need to 1) know whether we have a killswitch, and whether it's enabled and 2) modify the status icon to use the pixbuf.
