This seems like a fine idea to me, but shouldn't we actually get some designer resources to create optimal .png's, rather than rely on the auto-generated ones?

And then we just need to prioritize this w.r.t. everything else that is going on...

Is it time to remove the SWF resources altogether from the components and the non-SWF specific sample apps, and move the contents of the autoPng directories up a level?

The SWFs add confusion both to the source code ("I see SWF resources -- how could that work in DHTML?") and in the way the directories are laid out. And the autoPng mechanism is magic.

I don't think there's a benefit in keeping the SWFs around. While SWFs in some cases may be smaller and/or may stretch better, the confusion and difference between runtimes outweigh the benefits.

Thoughts?
