I need to do this because i want to create an application for older users for whom 32*32 is too small and 12point font is too small too. But i want to keep the toolbar functionality... So basically i want to make the toolbar more accessible.

Why do you want to do that anyway? Toolbars are fixed-height. They're for little shortcut buttons and things like that. If you want to put bigger images in a toolbar, it sounds to me like you're mis-using it for something it wasn't meant for.


Can't you just put your image at the top of your window and add a menu item to show/hide that part? Or alternately, put a generic icon into your toolbar that, when clicked, shows a plain (i.e. borderless) window containing the image?
