Thanks for the reply. The thing is, I need many
differently colored circles (more than 50) to insert
in front of a text in CellRenderer. Right now, the
only way I see how to do this is to have 50 different
.png (or smth else) files each holding a circle of a
different color. But this seems like an extremely
inefficient solution. Is there a better way?

Maybe like only hold 1 file of a white color, and
whenever I need a different color, change it inside my
application and use it. But I didn't find any tools in
Gtk that would manipulate image/pixbuf for me .....

Any suggestions? Thanks.
