Exactly the same way. Create BitmapImage object (pass Uri object with the same path to its constructor). Then set Image's Source property to the newly created BitmapImage object.

    public static BitmapImage GetImageFromResource(string name)
    {
        var res = new BitmapImage();
        res.BeginInit();
        res.StreamSource = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("SocialShock-WPF-Client.Images." + name);
        res.EndInit();

        return res;
    }

Invoke this method with the image name, "blue-bar-replication.png" in your case. The image build action should be set to EmbededResource.
