Menustrip Icon Placeholder?

How do you remove the gray bar that is a placeholder for icons that appear next to 'File', 'Open', etc.?

I have an example of what I'm talking about here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tineras/2138007107/

I don't want the space at all. I don't plan on using icons and would like to remove the gray bar altogether.

Thanks

I found a solution. This worked:

Code:

---

((ToolStripDropDownMenu)(fileToolStripMenuItem.DropDown)).ShowImageMargin = false;
