Do something like:
Image image = new Image (new Gdk.Pixbuf (null, "images/inactive.png"));
eb.Add (image));

then when you want to change it:
image.Pixbuf = new Gdk.Pixbuf (null, "images/inactive.png");

You will want to read through any of the C# tutorials you might find
through google, or a C# book if you would prefer that.
