Do you need to support Windows 9x anymore? I don't think newer systems 
have this limitation.

This approach will give you greater flexibility, however.

I think you should take the name as a key to its use: a wx.StaticBitmap 
is for things that are, well, static. If you just want to put a bitmap 
up on a dialog that isn't changing, it's a good choice. If you're trying 
to dynamically display various images, it's not the best choice.

That being said, this will give you some hints on using wx.StaticBitmap:
