LabVIEW Custom Controls

[fabio.intel]

I need some controls that look like a proportional valve, a Ring on Emergency-Stop Mushroom Pushbutton (see the picture).

If you are really lazy (and hav a budget) then the DSC Add-on for LV has a lot of ready made controls.

But that tool-kit is not required, you can

right-click and choose advanced customize.

Switch to edit mode and then you can import your own images.

Search Google images for these things and customize the control.  I found several usable images for an emergency button.

Hi!
I have a problem! I designed many controls ( right click -> edit control), inserted  pictures and so on and saved my own control. I would like to save my control into user control palette, so if I wanna use it, I just wanna drag and drop from user control palette.  I don't know how to do that... is it possible any way? 
Another question... I made 10 controls... how to save it into a vi package, and share with other people? (I am thinking of VI package manager usage)

Thank you very much!!!!!

As it says in the Help file:

The User Controls and User Libraries palettes contain subpalettes for each directory, LLB, or palette (.mnu) file in labview\user.lib and icons for each file in labview\user.lib.

If you want to use VI Package Manager the best place to ask about this is on the JKI website.
