Hello, yes, stock icons are now deprecated in favour of icon names, preferably symbolic icons (especally if you are building a GNOME component). Creating image buttons may seem a bit harder than before.
As you may have already seen, a GtkButton is subclassed from GtkBin, which means you can pack another widget into it. It can be a GtkLabel, or even a GtkEntry (this sounds crazy), or, in your case, a GtkImage. Create a GtkImage with gtk_image_new_from_icon_name(), then add it to the button with gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(button), image). And now that you hopefully understand the concept, I'd like to introduce gtk_button_new_from_icon_name() :) For this, you need GTK 3.10, though, but it's a shorthand for the above. Personally, I prefer using Glade/GtkBuilder, although Glade doesn't support some of the newer widgets, and gives you hard times with other stuff.
