then a Gtk2::ToggleButton with a Gtk2::Image embedded in, and set the
"toggled" property to TRUE (and disable the untoggling). :-)

if you want *the image itself* to be embossed, you should get the
Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf, extract the raw data and filter it using an embossing
graphic filter routine - I think it's quite easy to find on google.
