# IImageList Interface
 
This interface is implemented by all objects that can be used as an image storage for the [ThumbnailListView](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls_ThumbnailListView.htm.md) control.
 
**Namespace:** [Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/N_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls.htm.md)
 **Assembly:** Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.WinControls.dll)
 
## Syntax
  
```
Public Interface IImageList _Implements IDisposable
```
 
```csharp
public interface IImageList : IDisposable
```
 
## Remarks
  
[ThumbnailListView](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls_ThumbnailListView.htm.md) uses 3 types of images: small icons, large icons and thumbnails. Images of each type are stored in the appropriate image list. There is no need to use these implementations directly, that's why they are hidden.
 
You need not implement this interface yourself. You should use it only when you create your own kinds of items, that is when you implement the [IListItem](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gm5/T_Aurigma_GraphicsMill_WinControls_IListItem.htm.md) interface). You can get access to the image list through the parent of the list item.
