Using GPL'd Images?

Greetings,

I want to use some GPL'd images in a Rev made executable, but I'm not 
sure if I can or not.  These licenses are too confusing for me, so I 
hope someone here already has some experience with such things as GPL.

If I use icon images from the Gnome project, I know I must include the 
GPL license that comes with them, but I do not need all of the images. 
I know I would have to give access to images to the user.  But, do I 
need to include the entire package that the images came in, or merely 
the images I used along with the GPL and information on how to obtain 
the full package?

And, does my program have to be GPL'd because I used these GPL'd images? 
  Do I have to include the source to my program just because of this?

Any insight is greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
-Garrett
