How to employ PNG icons?

 One of the inspiring sessions I attended at Devcon this summer recommended this nice pack of icons as good for use with iPad solutions, so I went ahead and purchased them.

I'm now realizing that I'm lacking some basic conceptual understanding of how to deploy these PNG icons in a Filemaker solution.  If I "Insert Picture" to get the icon onto the layout I see that I'd need to actually store the icon in a folder somewhere accessible to Filemaker, which I'd rather not do.

 

But when I use a copy/paste approach, the icon appears with a square white background -- not the 'transparent' effect I need.

 

Is there a third option, or a way to get the PNG (or other format?) onto the layout without a need for reference files?

 

Thanks for any pointers . . .

You insert picture without reference files by inserting the picture without reference.
