How to store the images in a localized application.

Hello,

I have the following problem:
We have to develop an application with localization/globalization support. This application would use some images (on buttons and such).
We want to be able to select a different set of images depending on the operation system settings, For ex.: if we deploy the application on a machine in ..say Germany, the application should pick up the images related to German locales.

Could anyone please explain me what would be the best, nice way do accomplish this in a WPF application?
Maybe a very small ..step by step...explanation?

Thank you for your time,
Cristian

Say you have the images sharing the same path with some constant different indicating the culture (Folder, part of file name, whatever).
You can use an IValueConverter that returns the image Uri reading the current CultureInfo and returning the correspondent Uri.
