I'm working on an application which was made in Visual Basic 6.0. It was been made 8-10 years ago. There are different images used on the different command buttons. I have made a new image for a new button, but the image is not matched with the other images and I don't want to change all the old images.
I have used Fireworks 8.0, MS Office Picture Manager and MS Paint. However, I have failed to make the image the same as the others. I have attached a screen shot of the application. The new image is highlighted in a red rectangle. I want all the buttons to look the same. The new image looks a little blurry; also, the font is smooth, which it shouldn't be because the others aren't smooth.
I have faced similar issue. I have tested the text of the image with some of the fonts and found that MS Sans Serif was matched with font of the other images. I wrote the text in MS-Paint then copied it and paste it with icon in Fireworks 8 and made the background transparent. It worked for me. You can try it. Hope this helps!
